Another thing I suggest is to put that city name in here as a keyword alert on your profile so you know when people area talking about it and look for any forums specifically for that city. 

I have spent the past 6 months or so educating myself on REI as much as possible primarily here on BP by listening to countless podcasts, posting tons on the forums, analyzing hypothetical deals, networking with other investors, realtors, wholesalers, lenders, contractors, etc.

If more information is needed to help answer the question, I can provide that in the forum or through a private message.Thank you.

Look around the forums to learn about more hidden expenses you may not immediately think of.

In the end, it never helped me because I don't invest locally.My advice would be this: 1) Continue educating yourself on all things real estate using the BP podcast and forums.

@Krys L Burke Welcome to the forums!

Bill Hampton thanks Great summary,Just curious what made you throw this up on the forum.

I am having a hard time finding information on it which is what prompted me to post on the forum here.  

I've learned lots by keeping up with the forums on bigger pockets.
