Let me know if Qwerky might be a good chance to collaborate (link in my bio or google search for website). 

The key in my opinion to doing this in an expensive market is to prioritize value-add.

I understand that real estate investing requires hard work and long hours, but I am fully committed to putting in the effort to ensure my success and that of anyone I collaborate with.I am seeking guidance from experienced professionals who specialize in BRRR, wholesale, fix-n-flip, and short-term rental strategies.

The power of these groups at any level is the accountability, collaboration, networking, and growth that takes place individually.

It would be great to see success through collaboration in this space, as there are so many good ideas out there!

I want to keep the property as my first rental and am wondering how high I should prioritize updating outlets, many are ungrounded and not GFCI protected.

We collaborate in a Slack group and also meet once a week on a Zoom call.

I am prioritizing cash flow over appreciation right now.

We don’t meet too often in person but we share political action stories and news as well as collaborate and network online.

Perhaps you can just collaborate with a CPA to bridge any knowledge gap and perform the detailed work nevertheless.
