@Joshua Hively dredging up this dead thread to see if you still have those connections and would be willing to share?

ONLY purchase training if its with funds you can afford to lose because of the failure rate.making connections is important and where success can come from.

The inspector wanted me to add 2 screws to anchor the condenser and he did check for leaks at the gas connection (the gas connection that was flagged was decades old and I questioned if was before a permit was required but city stated it was up to me to prove that it was there prior to permit requirement).

I’m all ears—both success stories and lessons learned are incredibly valuable.Ultimately, I’m here to learn, share ideas, and connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about real estate.

I’m local and happy to connect if we can help. 

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

There will definitely be rude slum lords but I would say I have made some seriously good connections from just introducing myself.

Would love to connect on a call and hear more about the process.   

Connecting with experienced investors or joining local real estate groups can provide valuable insights and help you avoid costly mistakes.

Connect with lenders, agents, property managers, contractors, attorneys etc.3.
