Can any Long Islanders/NYers help me out by recommending other meet ups?

Increasing unit number or using less conservative, or increasing rent numbers or lowering vacancy rate could be close to a 6% cap rate.The area is known as a tourist destination, is geographically constrained, has a massive housing crisis and isn’t expected to ever build enough housing to meet demand.

There are about 10 meetings each month where you can meet others. 

Welcome, this is a great spot to learn and meet clients!

I would even schedule a meeting with the property manager to look at the property.

Hello all: I am hosting a meetup on Feb. 10th (Sat.) starting at 11am: in Highland Park CA Where we will do a 'home crawl' We will meet at the first property, we will walk the ADU project in progress in the framing and rough phase and then answer some questions about it.

I am in San Antonio, TX so I would love to meet people in the area that are also doing the same thing.

THEN get yourself to some meetups and meet other people locally.
