Ill be browsing around all the free knowledge on here as well

There's not much benefit with having a local CPA these days of technology.So you can browse this forum, find who you like and contact privately.

I browsed through Bigger Pockets podcast, and majority of the subjects are on how to finance your deal, and rental properties. 

@Chris SeveneyAlso I do not see how I can browse posts in the forum by latest - it shows trending but not latest posts

Specifically, I've been browsing opportunities in Fort Washington, MD (in PG county near MGM and national harbor) and Baltimore, MD (brooklyn).

What should I be looking for when I'm browsing sites such as Realtor.com?

If your curious what properties are renting out for on Airbnb, go to the website and browse local properties that are booked up with good ratings and see what their average rate is for a 7 day stay for different months/seasons. 

Basically I browsed through many off-market properties and ran the numbers on each and finally came across one that made sense.

Most of them require you to be accredited I think but you can also just browse to get an idea of the deals they offer and the syndicators that offer them.Finally, if you're interested in syndication I would recommend the real estate guys 'secrets of syndication' event and also Michael Blank's course.

You'll learn everything you need to know browsing this site.
