In a time where we have the best prices in a generation on SFRs, along with banks reluctance to lend on small less-expensive properties, and investor's frustration with equity markets and low bond/CD yields creating a conducive environment to offer them something vastly better, I can't think of any topic that would potentially be more important to those trying to build a portfolio of 1-4 unit properties to critical mass.I am in the process of putting together the materials I plan to use for discussions with prospective private lenders, and it seemed a great opportunity to have a robust discussion on what others are doing, and engage in idea-sharing.What works for you?

I wanted to report back about my experience at this conference.1 - My session went very well.

I'm hoping to get my EM back - that was my biggest out of pocket, I don't expect to see the "engagement fee" (though he said he will send it - I'm sure it will get lost in the mail).

If you're in for the long haul and are willing to engage the community to decrease disorder, then I would point you to best practices for community building.

I appreciate you Memphis guys engaging on the topic.

Heck, they gave us the Unfair Advantage book (which was a great read by the way), and a workbook full of Real Estate info at the free 2-hour session when we signed up for the 3-day.

The sessions will run from probably 8am until 5pm and there will be multiple sessions happening at the same time.
