@Kenneth P Ford they are a national franchise with great marketing.They also have some national support for their individual franchises, but it all depends on the local team.Recommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

It’s great to see you looking to expand your network.

Quote from @Kyle Swengel: Go to NETWORK at the top of your screen and you can search for other investors and investment groups in your area.

If you’re looking to invest in your backyard, it helps to network with as many local investors as you can.

The education, networking, coaches, events, podcasts, masterminds, etc is exactly what I needed.

Teahjsia, I think you are in the right place to network and learn from other investors that have walked the same path.

I have a cousin who funds RE deals and he has a whole network of money people, so I am putting together a business plan to submit along with my financials and an investment proposal.I am coming from single family residential, and have only ever worked with hard money for short-term loans, and also some smaller amounts of private money.

I have tried to find potential syndicators by literally tracking down who bought apartments that I see clearly have new owners... but in each case, to date, the new owner appears to not be open to outside investors (and so far no local outfits), so that's not working out.Kurt, due to my industry expertise, I have a very wide network, and work with hundreds of syndicators nationwide.

Bigger Pockets is a great place for education and networking and is full of great content.I recommend that you check out the following resources:1.
