You can also look on Hubzu, auction.com, craigslist, etc.You can go to local REIA meetings and network with folks there.  

On searching the MLS: I would network at your local bigger pockets meet up, if there isn't one then start one.

Tenants are not entitled to lifelong leases (although in SF with strict rent control, they certainly try).

For you that have been here awhile, Are there any BP meet ups?

I would love to meet up with anyone in the Greater Seattle Area to start a fix and flip!  

I would be happy to help analyze deals (I recently built an easy to use excel model, which I'm happy to share) in exchange for meeting to discuss your business or to shadow investors as they meet with brokers, manage property (tenant walkthroughs, rent collection, repair supervision, eviction, etc.), negotiations, and closings.

Hey Peter -Nice to meet you and that sounds like a cool plan!

This is a great place to network and meet other investors. 

Hi all,I live in the Indianapolis area and am starting to think about potentially becoming a private money lender...I'm going to have to brush up on what the current state of real estate is as I haven't looked into the markets, etc in a while...My current question is related to CIREIA...Can anyone tell me what the 160 fee to join includes other than a monthly meeting and discounts at some stores?

I have had good success here in columbus so far - anyone want to meet up ?
