Or you can directly meet them by registering to real estate events around you: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-events-and-happenings 6.

I would love to meet any real players in the area who would love to pay it forward and help someone green like myself.

Sign up for local news articles, go to events in different areas, attend neighborhood association meetings, and just go out and have fun.

How do you build trust with homeowners or sellers when you can’t meet face-to-face?

Must have tools: you need some type of evaluation metric and/or tool that you are comfortable with and are willing to walk about from a deal if it doesn't meet your requirements.also, a deal is a term for a transaction, not to be confused with a "good deal".

You’ll have 45 days from your sale to identify them and you’ll have to buy enough of them, and only them, within 180 days of your sale to meet your 1.1M requirement, or face taxes.

I am a newbie to REI, so all I can offer is welcome and I hope your REI journey helps you meet your goals!

Hey @Vanessa Lozano get out to some meetings and meet some people.

My biggest piece of advice would be to find someone who is in the position you would want to be in 10, 15, or 20 years and meet for coffee.

But tax wise just here to note if you buy a 4 unit as a primary when you go to sell (if you meet the requirements) only 1/4 of the gain could be excluded under the 121 primary home sale exclusion.
