I'm excited to be engaged with such an active and successful community!

I'm joining BP because I'm recently engaged and thinking about starting a family.

As I have noticed along with many others social media has the potential to be and is so much more.

The biggest thing I remember reading, and big reason why I didn't pursue much further was that 95% of the time, the solar company will find the land they want, check everything out and then engage the land owner about letting them do a solar farm on their property.

Post on social media. 

In most, if not all states, people who engage in real estate activities without a license are subject to legal action. 

That could be a great way to find and stay engaged with local investors, realtors and opportunities. http://www.biggerpockets.com/alertsYou can also search for other investors or brokers in your market and follow their journey on Bigger Pockets here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/search/usersBest of luck to you and look forward to following your success on BP!

I'm generally happy to engage on the above topic or anything else related to RE investing.

And since you are a contractor you can take advantage of your skills most in your home market .Sounds like you need to start driving for dollars, engaging some wholesalers, networking, etc. in your market.

While there was plenty of interest in subletting the rooms, my mom discovered the restriction at a social gathering.
