Attend your local REIA, use bigger pockets to network, and utilize some of your spare time to educate yourself on all aspects of real estate and how the monetary system works.

I started out only interested in wholesaling, but after listening to the podcasts, attending a real estate investor meet up and reading anything I can get my hands on (including @Brandon Turner's real estate investing with little or no money down book), I realize there are also many opportunities made possible by creative financing.

I would also highly suggest attending the REIAs and their luncheons.

Make sure to attend Jacob Firnekas meet up’s for great info.

Hello everybodyI'm attending a foreclosure auction tmrw morning and pulled a few of the properties.

It's been helpful, but it can be hit or miss as far as attendance.

I am attending the University of Washington and just moved in this week.

@Eric Upchurch, unfortunately, I will not be able to attend Rod Khleif's multifamily conference this fall but will keep that in mind.

I strongly recommend you attend some REI meetings in the area and build relationships with some of the local investors.

Now that we're looking more seriously, I'm definitely planning on attending some RE events Thanks for sharing your info @bruce cassidy. 1.6% sounds amazing!
