Would recommend you check out Fixated on Real Estate that meets in Renton monthly with great speakers and a ton of people so great networking.

Hello, I'm looking to network with good contractors in the south Fort Worth area. 

I think it'd be more of value to network with others, learn from their experiences, and even create partnerships in order to get a hang of the system.

As 'Real Estate' is widely expansive, I am specifically looking to take my first step and learn the fundamentals and basics.About Me:I'm originally from Courtice, Canada.

Give some information and knowledge and the benefits will come back to you tenfold.That would be in addition to starting a website, blog, craigslist ads, facebook posts, networking, telling all friends and family what you are doing, go to local meetings, code compliance lists, driving for $$, and a few others I cant think of right now.As mentioned above, you have to keep doing all of those consistently over and over.

Sounds like quite a wide set of criteria. $2.4m for an 8 unit property?

My suggestion would be to hit up local investor meetings and network.

Continue networking, educating yourself and searching for deals.

Always be networking and telling people about your interest in real estate and hopefully the right team members for you will come alone.

My property manager knew that I was looking to acquire more units and brought this deal to me, power of networking!
