I’m new to real estate and bigger pockets so I’m hoping to soak up as much as I can from other investors. 

Go to the top 3 agencies talk to the Broker and ask for the best agent.2- Get a good Mentor. .search on here  (Bigger Pocket).Someone to guide you with all your questions and concerns."

Some of those events will be posted on Bigger Pockets.Regarding Investor apprenticeship- I'll send you a private message regarding apprenticeship and mentoring. 

In a rural area, you can expect more acceptance due to the distances between homes, the taxes STRs bring in can make a real difference (plus the places people visit drive revenue) etc.There are a ton of folks converting their STRs to LTRs due to outright bans in the bigger cities.

I haven't found them thru Bigger Pockets.

This will help people connect with you after determining how their goals, services and resources align with yours.As you continued getting onboarded and acclimated here on BiggerPockets, you'll have tons of questions about Real Estate...

Heavy rehabs or rehabs that are bigger than the purchase cost range from not allowed to case by case to no issues, so all over the board on that issue.

Your Question is the number one question within Bigger Pockets, and at any Real Estate  meeting Across the USA.Best two things you need is.Great Realtor and great Mentor.
