For me, it’s been a mix of local friends and paid contractors.

I would love to connect with local investors around the area and discuss real estate.

Are you investing in your local market?

Private equity firms seem to favor larger operations with scalable systems, while smaller mom-and-pop firms are often acquired by local players or regional operators looking to expand their footprint.If you’re looking for actionable intel, reaching out to brokers specializing in the sale of PM firms could provide useful leads.

But being a local it seems like the prices are only going higher. 

local PM and happy to help with connecting you with agents, contractors, lender etc. and running analysis on investment property.

We've invested around $50,000 in improvements (central air and hardscaping) and our mortgage is a 30-year fixed at 2.5%, with a PITI of $2400.We think it could rent for $3,750 - $4,000 per month based on local comps.

As a General Contractor myself here in east central Texas, I can tell you that connecting with local GCs via Facebook groups can be incredibly helpful.

I’ll also connect with locals through BiggerPockets or Facebook groups for first-hand insights.If visiting isn’t an option, lean on a reliable local team (agents, property managers) to help vet the area.

Has anyone found a local Sac CPA they can recommend?
