You can also directly use the BP Marketplace to find potential JV partners or buyers, which is a great way to connect with people who are already looking for investment opportunities.In addition to online forums, attending local real estate meetups and conferences can give you face-to-face interaction with potential partners or buyers, which often builds stronger relationships.

Quote from @Jessica Althoff: Hello Partners,I am here to experience this amazing platform!

On another note, does anyone know of an online insurer that will write specified actual value policies that would allow me to choose the actual value that is adequate for my program?

Surround yourself with people who can help you grow, both locally and through the online investing community.If you need help with financing strategies or analyzing deals, feel free to reach out. 

If so I'd recommend looking at RentRedi, it's free for pro members and it has a free prescreening application, and also does credit and background checks through the platform that the applicants pay for.

Also, local real estate agents can also be a goldmine for off-market deals since they often hear about them before anyone else.As for property management, researching and looking at online reviews are a good start, but a real insider tip?

Attend local investor meetups, join local Real Estate Investment Associations (REIAs), join digital groups like LinkedIn and Facebook, and use platforms like BiggerPockets to connect with experienced investors, contractors, and potential partners.

You’d need to file the Articles of Organization with the Colorado Secretary of State (the cost is around $50), get an EIN from the IRS (which is free and can be done online), and possibly draft an operating agreement, which isn’t required in Colorado but is still a good idea.

I will say the Facebook groups and reversing different platforms have been the most successful.

Our properties are a strong mix of appreciation, rent growth and cashflow positive in year 1.Going on 6 years I have never had to even give any late notices, etc. for my northside chicago rentals, it's multiple applicants 700+ scores when list the units online.
