There is a pretty big real estate investors group in the Hartford area.

Step 2: Narrow down your "buy box" (are you market-indifferent, are you looking for a certain level of cash flow, etc.).Step 3: Connect with real estate agents and begin making offers!

Our current focus is for a family lakehouse / lifestyle play here in TN but would like to work my way into commercial properties, short-term rental facilities, business acquisitions to name a few.

Quote from @David Sotomayor: Im getting into fix and flip real estate and working with a private lender who requires a higher credit score than mine to qualify.

I would love to connect with local investors around the area and discuss real estate.

Also, how much time do you want to spend doing real estate vs. your main job or extra work in order to fund it.

@Joel Bongco how do you go about setting it up for real estate investors?
