I have only been able to attend one session in the past year.

They often will have sessions on this subject.Bigger Pockets?

@Jordan Coates You and your wife should attend Triangle Deal Maker Sessions, where wholesalers present properties.

Here's the format I'm thinking for each session (I'm always open for feedback to improve).1. 

I probably attended 4 sessions last year.

Expect a TIF, TIRZ, PID, PUD, MUD, or any other letter combination they might want.Expect mass transit to be extended, expanded, or relocated, and remodeled.The politicians I am hearing from are treating this like the Olympics where instead of the benefits lasting 20 days they will last for more than 20 years.I have even heard of offers of a special legislative session if someone thinks of something that might need a law change. 

Some even have a 2 hour training session which I highly recommend.

There is a FREE landlording meeting this Thursday, May 26th, at Tommy's Pizza on Dublin-Granville (between Sawmill and Riverside) that features education (a Q&A session geared to newbies for general real estate investing and landlording as well as a featured speaker) and networking and has a good mix of newbies and experienced investors.

I am an agent here at CRI and can help you out if you need any assistance @Lisa Sessions

They offer several training sessions and is a good way to network as well.
