Quote from @Grant Francke: For those with using Buildium for property management software, do you use Buildium's public site or do you use a website you have made and maintain?

I always remember that rockstars know rockstars, so find someone who is a mover and shaker - likely a meetup host - and then ask them who they know.The people doing 100 flips are super busy, so I've also found the best person to find is someone who is a step or two ahead of me...so maybe for you, that is someone doing 2-3 flips a year. 

If you're looking to network with multifamily investors and service providers I host multiple events a month.
