I'd love to share insight of the Birmingham market and see where most people are investing in Birmingham and the surrounding areas. 

I'd love to find some other people who are currently invested with Fairway America and - ideally - in this exact investment.Thanks,Matt BrownFairway has put out a ton of deals in a variety of real estate asset classes and strategies.

Hello everyone, I have seen in this forum a lot of people who have experience and passion.I am also passionate and want to invest in real estate for the long term.

Welcome Alana, you will find a lot of helpful people on this platform.

There is also podcastguests.com as well as several facebook groups where you can find people to get on other podcasts. 

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.You're feeling FOMO because you see people all over BP, YouTube, and Instagram bragging about their success.

Every day I mark how many calls to leads I made, how many people I contacted (and was it email, call, text) from my database/past clients....how many social media posts I answered or made, etc.I don't know if that's automating, but every week I can quickly see how much of each money generating thing I did.Do you use Google Calendar? 

A couple of years ago, I worked with an investor who never updated the contact information for the loan and the Bank call the seller (ex-wife), that day she was mad at her ex-husband and told the bank her ex allowed someone to steal their property from them and they got no money, she was kicked out of her house and there were strange people living there.This could all have been avoided if the investor did this process correct.Get educated, also I do not know your attorney but not many attorneys have the knowledge to do this process correctly. 

You can get eaten alive in the Baltimore market by people selling you Class D properties "dressed up" as Class B.

My experience has been that although I outline the requirements for tenancy in my properties, both brokers and PMs still send people who would qualify for most property owners but do not meet my outlined criteria; and then are SHOCKED when I reject them.
