I spend money in education by attending online workshops, boot camps and conferences which are offered by exerts in that particular area.

I Became interesedt in a free seminar under David Lindahl group in multifamily apartments...so I am still a student; I have not attended his 3-day workshop in August 2016.

To find ranchers to network with go to their marketplace portal: http://co.foodmarketmaker.com/For reference here is the main site: https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/agmain/learn-abou...CDA along with Colorado Proud host a variety of workshops throughout the year. https://www.colorado.gov/agmarkets/colorado-proudAlso check out the USDA and possibly the Colorado Restaurant Association.

I’ve had a great experience on BP, going to local meetups, REIA’s and just networking with other investors.I’ve gone to a few conferences and those were all good too.Just remember any free 2 hour workshop or $300 weekend seminar is probably a funnel into a $20,000 program.

Now I do see syndicators offering free or cheap workshops as they want to build their passive investor database to invest on their projects.I do help my buyers understand the process when buying retail centers but I get paid a lot for it.

Just listed a couple new plans and have several more in the works, hoping to start building and selling specs this summer.

Admitting you have a problem means you have taken the first crucial step on the long road to recovery ;-) I know other people who have talked about, thought about and researched real estate, attended meetings, gone to work shops, etc, for years.
