I am currently in Denver and grew up in San Diego.

Cost to attend is $10.

I all ready have a handful of people that are interested in attending once I can get things figured out.  

Sharader,First step is to get the know-how through reading books, listening to podcast, watching & attending webinars and seminars.Next is to network with as many apartment investors and commercial real estate brokers as you can.Then line everything up and do the work to buy your first apartment deal.

(You should also attend your local REIA and start networking.)

Attend REIA meetings in the area and network. 

My wife and I own a duplex here with some partners and just bought another home that we're living in for a few months while we get it ready to be a rental (before heading back to our Denver).Yes, if you're coming from the Dave Ramsey school of thought, suddenly leveraging yourself can seem counterintuitive. 

But when you get into the 20+ unit properties, typically you are not using realtors.If it were me, I would be spending time on here learning what you can, attending local meetups of investors, and REIA meetings. 

Cycles are the most prominent feature of the real estate industry, we discuss late cycle behavior and current trends, which typically persist longer than cyclesIf the market is static and the pace of change is gradual, we may hardly feel the change, but they are happening even if subtlyToday, we are seeing changes of state in the housing market, which may see homeownership in the 2020’s drop to levels not seen since the 30’s and 40’sJoin AZREIA as we gather the brightest and most successful Arizona investors for a panel of “Prescriptions & Predictions” on navigating this amazing time in real estate.I think the first meeting is free to attend.

When I attend a foreclosed auction, I will definitely keep that at for front.
