REIAs are good places to meet like-minded individuals, but the speakers they bring in are there to prey on the masses at the REIA, so hold onto your wallet when they start spouting with their silver tongues.Jack

I am wrapping up an MBA in NYC and looking to start investing in rental properties (SFH and Multi-family) using the BRRRR method in areas like Western Mass. and Upstate New York.Looking forward to meeting everyone and finding ways to provide value to this community!

@Chris SeveneyYes, I don’t think wholesaling notes as an individual starting out by mass mailings, emails, or texts is going to be profitable on a full time business basis.In reality, the only market in which a wanna be note wholesaler has a shot at success ( although the broker joker dreams die hard) is owner financed notes.

You can likely land a 10+unit in another area of Mass with that capital => generate more profit in the short term and begin to snowball.

I can't even call it success since everybody, apart from the necessary losers, is having the same "success" by merely following what the masses are doing.

I also think the commercial sector will be ok short term with help from banks but if it ends up being a long term shutdown things will get dicey.Let's all hope and pray that this situation gets under control quickly, that a vaccine or effective treatment is quickly developed, and that this mass shutdown of our economy is only short term.  

However, closer to noon, that same innocent neighborhood will morph into a mass hangout as unemployed tenants make their way outside to hang out and loiter.

I get about 10% when I send them -- way better than mass-mailed postcards!

The mortgage company usually choses the attorney BUT in Mass you have the right to have your own attorney do the closing.

We have record short worker engagement, mass job openings, mass access to secondary education, record LOW enrollment in secondary education, mass need in skilled positions, and yet this is headlines we watch, those shouting "FEED ME CEYMORE!
