Hi Shawn-Congratulations on starting out on your real estate investing career.You have a question about whether it is good to have your real estate license or not as an investor and you are leaning toward multifamily investing.I personally think having your real estate license is helpful as an investor.Having your real estate license allows you to work with other investors to help them build their portfolios which helps expand your network while being productive, you can research market value more effectively, find out about deals before they are listed, and of course it allows you to collect the commission on purchasing any listed property.To Your Success!

That strength i carry that lets me stand alone is beneficial but also as I left that crowd i was never able for unknown reasons to reconnect to a better class of people or even network.

I currently own 2 commercial and 1 residential, a 7 unit / 2 commercial storefront property, a Laundromat facility storefront, Then a 2 unit multi family that i am house hacking.The purpose of the this post is that i want to meet ALL investors( pro or just starting out) in New London County to know each other and learn and talk about real estate, want to create a great network of people in this county.

It seems you need to put in more work and network with the right people.   

Finally able to actually start executing on some thoughts — and figured I need a network of folks that love real estate investing as much as I do.

Go to one meetup a month to network.

Interested in networking and learning more about multifamily investing.  

Everything else comes from networking, experience, and getting your hands dirty. 

I'm sure there must be someone in your network that is successful in this.

My name is Terrance, and I’m excited to join this incredible network of real estate professionals and enthusiasts.
