Hi Jerry, BP and local Facebook groups are a great resource for meeting local agents, investors, and lenders who can provide some solid insight into the markets you're interested in.

People who want to do multi-family deals of all sizes but I have yet to meet anyone who have similar ambitions all-be-it this is my first post as such.

Hope to see you at more real estate meet ups too!

.: Decided to try to use Obie on a new acquisition because my traditional insurance doesn’t do new policies in California and the insurance agent recommended by my loan officer just wasn’t working fast enough (CA Fair Plan seems to be at fault) to meet our closing calendar. 

Meet other investors in your area and stay in touch with them; you can ask them questions that might prevent problems.Best to you!

I also am planning to meet with my PM on Monday to discuss pain points and better expectations, I would love to hear what sort of expectations you set with property managers?

This is to meet the U.S. govt requirements.  

We meet definition for qualified investor.• DSTs: Seems as though returns are rather low, low transparency on opportunities (?)

Pick a screening platform/application that makes sense for you.As for meeting the applicants, I recommend meeting them at the property to show the place to them rather than getting coffee or food with them.

The ideal property would meet the above criteria, AND would have a large yard, or ideally, a detached garage that was a suitable candidate for an ADU construction project (CO now allows ADU construction on most properties), and/or a primary structure that had lots of value-add potential.
