In other states it’s like foreclosing on a mtg....not great for DIY. 

I am currently living in Sacramento Ca and would love to network with folks in or out of the area.Thank you

What are the best ways of networking to find investors to work with? 

- It's only good for food haha).The quotes came back as such: $5500, $6400 and $7800 for a new 3 ton unit and installation..I was appalled as these prices didn't sit right with me so I decided to take matters into my own hands and do some on the ground research since I just so happened to be in Houston that weekend.They say your network is equal to your net-worth so I immediately reached out to my network of investors and got the contact of a formidable handy man in the area.We were able to cut out the multiple middlemen and go straight to the wholesale distributor (cutting off all middle men would mean going straight to the manufacturer but it's not possible to buy one off units from them).I paid $1000 for a brand new 3 ton unit and was charged $500 for the labor of the handyman...Needless to say, I'll be working with this handyman for future projects and repairs..Total cost - $1500 and 2 hours of my timeTotal savings - ~$6000Because of my spidey sense and network, I was able to save a ton of money, form a new relationship in the process, acquire a connect with the wholesale distributor and write this article..

So here I am ready to jump in and start actively participating - meeting people and building my network, and hopefully making a few deals to get the ball rolling.Please reach out and say hi! 

There is still a lot that can be done while you're preparing: Educate and network

At BP, not only can you network with other real estate investors, you can learn from the informative forums posted daily on the site, find properties that are for sale, and take free courses.

I am debt free outside of my primary home, and am very much of a DIY person, and can pretty much build a house from the ground up.
