Throughout the course of the following school year, I kept up with people around the firm, especially my mentor that had gotten me the internship in the first place, and whose nephew was now playing on my lacrosse team.  

The Taunton group is myeasternmassreia.com and here is the link to plymouth:  http://www.meetup.com/House-Flipping-School-MeetUp...Hope you found it before now, it was last night.Don't limit yourself to the South Shore, because sometimes it's about the people you meet, not the location of the meeting.

Agent is normally a sales person, and a broker is an additional amount of schooling that is more management or experienced.

I'm from San Jose, California but moved to Southern California for school.

In 2008 I had gone broke going to school out of state and getting a collection on my credit score, it suddenly became very difficult to get loans to go to school (keep in mind, I had no support from my parents and was living on my own).

In 5-10 years when millennials start making families, there will be even higher demand for good homes in good school districts.- 25K in cash from your equity does not give you enough 20% downpayment to buy anything better as a rental around here

I wonder if there is a school there.

Pay attention to what school districts are selling quickly, how much rehabbed houses are going for, how much houses that need work are good for, ectAlso spend time going to open houses to get an idea for what the market is like.  

yes, there were two multi-family buildings in Berkeley near the school for $1 each (might still be there), but I think the deadline expired to sell them. part of the deal was that they would HAVE to be relocated within Berkeley, and Berkeley just doesn't have those types of lots available.
