I’ve seen folks pick up land in similar setups.. sure, maybe not always in Wyoming, but in pockets around San Antonio where people said, ‘Oh, that’s just dry scrubland,’ adn now those owners are sitting pretty with properties they can eventually develop or flip.

I own 5 sfr in San Antonio and rent them out with a property manager handling all details. 

I’ve got a network that stretches into San Antonio, Phoenix, Chicago, and beyond... from what I’ve heard, when you team up with the right people, you’re not just investing in a property, you’re investing in a support system.

RE meetups that have helped me are very specific to San Francisco Bay Area market (sales and median rents in the last year and last quarter) so I'd recommend finding a meet up or session that might address your local market and if that's a viable option for you to invest in. 

Hello all, I am an investor based out of San Antonio, TX.

@Loan NguyenAs someone who grew up in the Bay Area (just north of San Francisco), I feel your pain. 

Insurance would cover it, I would pay the deductible, and no assets would be lost.If you are in an area like San Diego where people are more likely to sue, a judge is more likely to find you guilty, and the payout is expected to be higher, you may consider an umbrella insurance policy.

This one will be interesting, in mountain view and it is very active. https://www.meetup.com/San-Jose-Real-Estate-Networking-Club/...

@Francisco J Sanchez I specialize in selling multifamily in the Tucson area... send me a personal message if you'd like to connect.

You could also go for a condo: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/4310-54th-St-APT-109-San-...Again, this is only an example that I found in less than 5 seconds.
