I’m also an active member of the local landlord association in Joliet (JRLA), which has been a great resource for networking and education.

build a network. 

I've realized that embracing all types of Investors and expanding my Network in every way aligns with my Goals and benefits the Investing Community as a whole.

Explore remote investing options like turnkey properties or out-of-state rentals with property managers, and use summers or gap years to network, analyze deals, and gain hands-on experience.

The real wealthy people are quiet, unassuming, running their business and not their mouths.Keep networking, educating, and growing.

Working social media / personal networks is much more dynamic.

Off-market deals are key if you go this route, so networking is huge.Out-of-state investing is another option people love, especially in markets like PA (Philly, Scranton) or even down south where prices are lower, and the landlord-tenant laws are more forgiving.

If you are searching for offmarket, you can network with local wholesalers, and also use something like dealmachine to generate leads.

I network with many investors in the scranton area as well as Vacation Rental investors in the poconos!

I’m interested in networking and meeting up as well.
