Do a search Herr on BP for tax liens and you will quickly see who the players are in that niche.

This isn't the only way, but you'll at least know who the main players are that likely have experience and connections.  

I am an intermediate level amateur guitar player, always willing to talk shop about that.

Failed baseball player but great coach.

@Brenton Tigner Jr - It sounds like there is a ton of upside if market rents are at $900, and a lot are paying $500.Maybe thing about bird dogging or wholesaling the deal to a bigger player.

There's also lots of new players wanting to flip houses, especially inexpensive ones. 

For example, If they see that the 9 ball is tucked right up against the 8 and the 4, say, in a cluster, they will take a difficult shot to shoot it clear.Lesser players will take all the easy shots and avoid the trouble 'till the end of the game when it can really make them lose everything.just thought I'd share...

These areas can be tough for new players but once you learn, you have a big advantage over those that do not understand the system.

It is a great place to start and network with some real power players here in the Los Angeles area.

It’s critical to build a community for yourself as a Note Investor.This community will serve you through time with deal flow, vendor resources, strategies, due diligence & workout support…you get the point.In my opinion a MMG needs to holds the following to be successful:1)A series of consistent meetups in-person & through video conferencing (i.e. once a month)2)Have a veteran player facilitating the call to help move the discussion along while they smell out opportunities3)Have a safe and open environment so nobody feels dumb bringing up any topic for discussion4)Synergy formation through positive discussion.This could lead to forming buying partnerships, teaming, shared resources, and a whole host of other positive moves5)NO SELLING POLICY.The MMG should not be a forum for selling products and services to each other.Any one else have any thoughts on this?
