In addition, you might meet a local wholesaler that you might be able to collaborate with.Best of luck to all of us on this real estate journey :)

I am looking to do whatever it takes to achieve my financial goals, and would enjoy collaborating with others to meet their goals as well.

@Mark Dresdner if you identify a property in Texas I'd be happy to chat about possible collaboration. 

If you have no professional skills, collaborate with someone who does in exchange for part of your profit.Front Porch Clause - The cash you need could come from the investment property itself.

Would love to connect and collaborate.

In my area there is a serious lack of organized collaboration going on.

We can collaborate on organizing this as I was planning on holding one end of month.

Ideally, we can network with others who are looking to collaborate across markets.Some ideas for collaborative info sharing:1) performance data2) good brokers/ local cleaners/ handymen etc.3) neighborhood insights4) anything pertaining to opening an AirBNB in another cityI can share actual performance data for New York City and Miami (South beach and north miami beach).
