I would recommend searching for local Facebook groups to find events to attend.

@Anibal SanchezHave you looked into attending local meetings and joining Facebook groups?

I wasn't able to attend the webinar on Friday.

Hi Alex, I believe there is a Pittsburgh group that meets regularly but I would love to attend another gathering as long as time/place works.

Investment product marketers who claim to be GPs, GPs who claim “ownership”, insurance salesman who claim to be “financial advisors”, people who attended an executive training program claiming to have an MBA, what ever happened to honesty?  

Maybe attend a chamber of commerce meeting and ask around where development will start.

The problem is that it take far more effort to LIVE that dream that it is to wake up from that Dream.I teach Real Estate Investing on the side and I will tell you 95% of the students are sitting in class dreaming or pretending that they are improving their lives just by attending the class.In the end, they don't really study.I give a Spreadsheet exam at the end of a 12 week / 1 class per week session on building a 10 Year Pro-Forma business plan for your Real Estate and I will tell you 95% fail out right.Being in class is more about dreaming than it is about putting in the effort to learn the skills to be an Investor.

I would recommend finding some local meetups to attend, and also tuning into the Straight Up Chicago Investor's Podcast.

Focus on actionable steps like analyzing deals, attending local meetups, and exploring niches like wholesaling or house hacking.

Meetup is a fantastic app to find real estate meetings around you, and look for local REIA (real estate investor associations) and attend a bunch of meetings.
