I have paid for seminars, so called "mentors" and this is by far the most impressive and knowledge filled database bar none.  

We appreciate this feedback and are actively building our knowledge and database of rehab costs.

Someone who is a hard money lender in PA may not also lend in NJ.Once you find an area you want to invest in, you can post on the biggerpockets market place mentioning that you are looking to connect with a hardmoney lender who lends in that area.BP does have a database on hardmoney lenders.If you are a first time investor, it may be difficult to find a hard money lender to fund 100% of the purchase and repair budget.

I have used most of the online databases that are available and have looked in Reading, Waltham, Medford, Melrose, Watertown, Wakefield just to name a few. 

Being a listing broker I only focus on listing property and marketing to my big database of buyers.That is the most cost efficient use of my time running my business"By listing the property I protect my position before exposing the property to my buyers group.I can market my listings to a large group of buyers at once instead of taking one buyer out at a time.Once I explain this the seller moves forward.

It also may help you network and get a referral from another MRP if they happen to remember you or look you up in the membership database. 

I personally lead generate primarily through prospecting my database, expireds, fsbos and circle prospecting.

Call it brand building, creating an investor database of people who have already invested, etc.

Build your database from day one.
