Local REIA groups and meetups (check Meetup.com or BiggerPockets) are excellent for connecting with both new and experienced investors.I’d be happy to grab coffee and chat about the market or share insights.

I know this is also a National issue, especially in land constricted markets.

At least 98% of the marketing I see and receive for SubTo is blatantly predatory.

You’ll want to make sure your property is styled and stocked to fit the target market catering to what Big Bear has to offer and what guests expect.

Raising money is all about marketing and sales (not real estate specific) so either hire marketing agency and read sales books, or hop on some LinkedIn courses on marketing and sales.Not sure the legal structure to use: talk to accountants and attorneys.Need deal flow: talk to brokers and go to a lot of networking events.Lending terms: start calling banks and loan brokers.From there, it is all risk mitigation. 

Networking with local wholesalers and real estate agents who specialize in investment properties can also lead to off-market opportunities.

Educate yourself with books, podcasts, and market research, define your goals, and build a team of professionals to support your journey.

I would consider getting 1-2 deals on market before you purchase off-market.

My goal is to help property owners navigate management challenges while ensuring their investments are well taken care of.I’d love to hear from experienced investors about what’s working in the Charleston market and share insights as I gain more hands-on experience.

I have been very successful in helping clients acquire Airbnb homes and creating themes and uniqueness for their homes to be more appealing and marketable.
