This site is great for networking and getting a ton of real estate information.

I'm way behind the times with social media but finding a robust network there. 

I am in north-west NJ (Hackettstown-Parsippany) and am looking to network with local investors.

@Louise Alexander, @Bijoy Shah, @Kevin Wyn, @Ross Denman, I'll be visiting Indianapolis on a weekend soon and would love a chance to network with some locals there. 

Turnkey investments are attractive to me as a newcomer since I don't have experience in renovation and don't have a network of potential teammates.

To do this, you need to be working neighborhoods, mailing letters to abandoned and distressed properties, networking so that everyone knows what you do - outside of investor groups but where the public can find you.

( putting an ad out to network with  Cash buyers I am finding out are not always truthful when they state they are "Cash Buyers". 

., so make sure you're networking with lots of other investors, property managers, contractors, etc. in your area and asking them about the numbers.

I have been lurking on Bigger Pockets for sometime now and have finally committed to taking action on my goals for 2018 (mainly, purchase a 10+ unit apartment building) so I figured it would be best to introduce myself the the BP community and start networking. 

I'd definitely appreciate the opportunity to meet others who are active in this space and learn from them and expand my network.
