(One virtual and one local).   

Hello- my name is Georges.

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

You should see if there are any local real estate meetups going on while you're in town.

Quote from @Zach Howard: I think it's probably better to hold real estate in an LLC than in my personal name.

I found this property through my network of local real estate professionals and direct outreach.

for Fort Myers I used someone who is VERY VERY good.. he managed my property and eventually sold it.his name is Kevin Page - Cape Shore. 

Marco I just cringe at these posts  entrance fee is code for a a trainee that is in the tribe you know whats his name.. 

@Chris Seveney Poster's name was Whit B. 

It’s great that you’re looking to connect with local investors—it’s always helpful to learn from others’ experiences as you get started.As someone new to investing, one thing to consider is not limiting yourself to your immediate area.
