One of the recent videos from the new #askbp podcast is about this topic. http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2015/04/21...My thoughts:The good = access to listings, knowledge about contracts, save money on transactions, able to make additional income by finding properties for other investorsThe bad = time, cost, administration (you save money on transactions b/c you have to do all the paperwork)Some people want to focus on what they do best and outsource the rest.

An interesting read & video.

I belong to a Mastermind group, we meet twice a year in person for 3 days at a resort away from distractions.We also have a weekly scheduled phone call with one mastermind partner.I would like to start a virtual mastermind group & have regular online video conferences & utilized some of latest cool apps & technology. smiletime.com is a pretty cool free site for this.
