Hi Rae, i'd recommend joining local Facebook groups.

Hi all,I have been a solo agent for a few years and recently joined a team with the hopes of learning some new things and try the cold calling aspect.

@Mike Grudzien @Tim Delaney do you guys think it'd be worth joining a credit union in the city I used to live just to get the rate even if I'm out of state now, will they still give a better rate? 

Consider getting a real estate license and joining a company that focuses on working with investors.

Joining meetings?

BP has done such a great job of promoting SFR investing to the masses, that those masses have pushed up real estate prices to where it's now DIFFICULT to cashflow right away.Keep going, but understand you won't get rich in real estate overnight - it's a long-term wealth building strategy.For the short-term, recommend joining a few in-person investor meetings if possible, otherwise online ones.

Most gurus have their clients journey end the moment they send them the money, they join a facebook group - have overseas VA;s moderate it and provide some old videos that get repurposed.Those who are new and thinking they are creative typically get crushed as they are gambling not investing.

Joining-  You're "Rough" grade lumber, is it even worth it to ship it to India/China?
