I know we all have different areas of focus and different levels of experience in the industry, but would like to gain some insight for myself and for others.

@Steven Hamilton II do you have some insight into this? 

@Ralph R.Great insight on this..

Each time I've connected with them, they've always provided advisement and insights on why now is the time to buy.  

There are a lot of ways to invest, and if you have the time, can hustle and be an expert in an area - you can likely partner and offer someone a lot.Good luck on your journey - stay with it and you'll get there!

@Ryan McEniff based on my education and training when analyzing a deal I use the following for operating expenses: Check with the local area you are buying by asking the local experts, but as someone who is a real estate Broker in CA, our average closing costs on the buy side for a buyer will run between 2%-3% of sales price (most of that comes from lender origination fees). 10% vacancy (most deals I see when being offered for sale are between 5%-8%, but if it pencils with 10% I know I'm probably covered on vacancy)10% for property management (until I know exactly what the PM fee is then I would modify, but average is 8% to 10%)5% for R&MActual Property TaxesInsurance (Get quotes from 3 companies and take the average)Landlord Utilities (12 month average.

If so, it's important to gather as much insight as you can from the owner and or sellers agent, concerning the lease terms.

What insight might you like to see out of something like that?

I'll take any insight anyone is willing to offer. 

@Alex Day thank you for the insight, im currently on a mission now bout how do i find out more about these meetings?
