Hello All, I'm curious if there are any local meet ups on Long Island ny.

Also, local meetups are a great way to meet local investors!

I say start there, exhaust your local efforts before jumping toward "shiny things" and unknown markets, persons etc.. 

We're also seeking to buy a local (Raleigh / Durham) property management company to expand that business more rapidly.

You'll typically need to set up your account and get familiar with the process of working with the local housing authority.

The solution could be a creative financing solution such as a total or partial private note, an assumption of the note or LLC, a speciality or local lender, or any combination thereof. 

I have been trying to get a distressed/value add LTR property under contract in my local market for some time now.

I'm a local real estate broker, investor, and manager (100+ rentals, mostly Airbnb/STR and multifamily).House hacking is a tried-and-true method and in Sacramento you can produce some meaningful income while enjoying the appreciation and tax benefits of owning real estate.

Private equity firms seem to favor larger operations with scalable systems, while smaller mom-and-pop firms are often acquired by local players or regional operators looking to expand their footprint.If you’re looking for actionable intel, reaching out to brokers specializing in the sale of PM firms could provide useful leads.
