When BRRRR was really popularized rates were very low so the holding costs were much better.There are a lot of local real estate investing meetups that you guys can attend.

I recommend finding local meetups to attend. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521 I have found all of my best connections at local meetups.

(BTW I was told there was a Landlord training session in early 2016, did anyone know about it and did anyone attend?)

@Miki SheinaizenI recommend finding local meetups to attend. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521I have found all of my best connections at local meetups.For your BRRRR strategy, partnering with a local property manager and connecting with contractors early on can help streamline your rehab process, especially if you’re not local.

To invest in Richmond, join REIAs, engage on social media, attend events, learn from resources, connect with agents, explore neighborhoods, and connect with professionals for appreciation, rental demand, and strong cash flow.Good Luck!

Networking with other investors and attending local meetups can help you gain advice and opportunities.

A few recommendations - learn as much as you can from books, podcasts, and attending free or low-cost real estate investor meetups in your area (in-person is best).

Hello, I have purchased 4 different asset manager lists over the past two years, but three were ineffective with outdated information and many email bounce-backs or returned mail.The best list I found was at RealEstateTargetdotcom; I did a successful snail mail and email campaign, and picked up three new banks and an account with LPS.I also cross referenced names on the list to see who was attending or speaking at various REO conferences, and made efforts to meet asset managers in person.

A while back, I attended one in San Diego County.

@Daniel Barnett have you attended REIA of Oakland, REIA of Wayne, MREI, Renegade Detroit Investors?
