Posts like this are part of my journey to learn, network & connect with experienced professionals like yourself who have valuable insights to share.I also want to apologize for the late response—it’s been a busy few days, but I didn’t want to miss the chance to thank you for your input.Looking forward to learning & growing in this space & who knows, maybe one day I’ll be offering you in on an investment idea or I'll be the one offering advice to new investors!

Just like you would as a realtor, use your marketing techniques (cold calling, mailers, networking etc.) to find good off market deals for yourself.

Ask yourself: do I really have the knowledge of real estate principles, real estate law and real estate finance; the network of contacts; the experience both in business in general and real estate in particular; the time available; and the analytical ability to compete against FULL TIME EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONALS to be successful in a field where the failure rate is so astronomically high?  

I am looking to grow my buy and hold rental portfolio and would love to network with other investors/agents/wholesalers etc.

I'd love to start my networking and also understand the tax complications of buying property while abroad.also FYI - my husband and I are looking to move to the USA at one point but most likely in 2026.

I am open to creating an online networking group (not mastermind) of experienced investors.

Are you able to go there in person to build your network? 

Start by networking with local investors, identifying target neighborhoods, running numbers on potential deals, and lining up financing so you're ready to act when the right opportunity comes up!

It helps me build connections with other investors, and it helps me expand my network of capital partners. 

That is why everyone here is emphasizing relationships and networking.
