You will definitely want to check out the Black Diamond meeting in Waltham (2nd location in Worcester).  

I would particularly recommend the Black Diamond event in Waltham who is hosted by BP member @Ann Bellamy, the quarterly meeting organized by @Justin Silverio (he got one scheduled for tomorrow so i recommend you reach out to him) or the NEREIA in Chelmsford.

You have to work harder than these people and uncover a diamond in the rough that no one else has come across or pursued yet.

Easy, fun and extremely profitable if you find a diamond.

I need to find that one diamond in the rough that just says "I am making $10k, here is my contract... buy my deals." 

Besides all the great resources here on BP I'd also recommend checking out a local real estate investment group like RIREIG in Warwick or Black Diamond REI in southern Massachusetts.

Unless you're finding diamonds in the rough, the margins are still very slim for a deal to be financed.  

(Filter for beginner, will learn negotiation skills and system later to potentially "turn*" some of the filtered out diamonds in rough)Equipped with information above I'm confident to find the deals I'd like to look into and make that appointment at least one week in advance before my plane lands; specifically the March 21-23.Thanks for reading and your thoughts,Suni

If mining diamonds was easy, they would be worthless.

Not sure if there's much of a spread in Cobb but if you happen to find a diamond in the rough not far from Suntrust Park that will definitely be a winner as well.
