If not, check LinkedIn.

You can friend them on linkedin and other social media sites.  

You can use this platform and LinkedIn to connect.

Try searching for project managers on LinkedIn, or ask a friend if they know anyone in the industry to get you started.I was actually given a couple recommendations on contractors from a home inspector that I used on my first investment on a rental property.

You can also become a LinkedIn networking wiz since the average income of members is $100k+ (obviously this is likely skewed by ultra-high networth individuals). 

You can start connecting with local agents and investors on LinkedIn and other platforms and eventually meet them in person.You can focus on learning now and can create content in later part.Good Luck! 

Also, connect with any Lawyer you can on LinkedIn in Charlotte.

Specifically, I was in B2B sales for 25 years, and I've used LinkedIn very heavily for the past 10+ years to connect with colleagues and clients. 

The best way in my opinion to find them is on Linkedin, they are constantly posting their deals.Secondly, wholesalers.
