They make their money off of real estate agents, but real estate agents are the worst people to make money off because they are highly unreliable and in and out of the business when the market changes.Their target should be the consumer with higher levels that they can subscribe too for data, since Zillow is linked to the MLS now which makes their data somewhere more reliable.

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

Here’s my honest advise; consider studying for and obtaining your real estate sales license, and obtain a part time position with a real estate agency that will provide training, guidance, and oversight.  

Joining BiggerPockets is a fantastic first step – it’s where so many great real estate journeys start.

Your journey in real estate is inspiring, and it’s amazing how you’ve built on your mom’s legacy.

@Nicholas A. your shotgun approach has a high probability of getting the exact quality you put into it.95%+ of real estate agent, many of them posting they are "investor-friendly", only know how to deal with owner-occupied transactions. 

Investors like me are left sifting through overpriced junk instead of finding real opportunities. 

Best of luck on your real estate future, it's been a fun adventure for me!

Hopefully you own your portion of the real estate in your own LLC or your own name.

Going to property tours inspired me to obtain my real estate license in the state of Georgia; and look further into property investing and helping others achieve their real estate goals.
