Additionally, many deals tend to fly under the radar, so networking within organizations like NARPM (National Association of Residential Property Managers) can help uncover opportunities.If anyone reading this is considering selling their property management company in Texas, feel free to share—I’m genuinely interested in connecting.

If you are just looking to network I would go the route of meetups locally (you can check above at the toolbar, hoover over forums then to the right you have events and meetups.If you are looking to wholesale and build a list of buyers that fix and flip for deals you may have then I would pull lists from 3rd party sites like Property Radar or propstream.

I hope management works, but taxes are flying, insurance is flying, and I just wonder if I made a mistake with this property. anyway, sorry for the rant...

I RARELY will do a deal for someone i have not personally met.. so I do a lot of flying :)  

I invested in Jacksonville, FL, because my old job would fly me there multiple times yearly.

We are in the top 10 fastest growing big cities right now, so families and singles are constantly flying in to check out the area.Raleigh allows short term rentals if you apply for a license.

I can't imagine flying out there for a day or two with a hotel can cost you $10K.Flying out there is like you paying for an insurance. 

My experience in the last 15 years is that except in the most extreme circumstances, an investor is going to need some of their own capital to make a deal fly.
