It never hurts to establish a relationships before you get a deal under contract.

Are they a well established organization?

I'm reading Frank Gallinelli's book (37 calculations...) and a few from the Rich Dad advisors series.  

Hello BP Team,I am currently working  on establishing a partnership with a person who i know for a long time.

I'n from Compton as well looking to work with motivated individuals in the city, and establish relationships through social media. 

As long as the media keeps pumping "high" unemployment and "declining" population, we will be able to have a field day with no competition and very undervalued deals.At the end of the day wherever you're looking to invest make sure that you have established trust and relationships with key people on ground that will always have your best interests at heart.Don't become another foreign investor succumbing to shady operators here in the US.Thanks and have a great day.

You can get the address from tax records- but if you already have it- send him a letter stating you are an investor home solution advisor and you are currently purchasing houses in the area.

You may lose on the profits but you share risk's and benefit from the connections of someone already established. 

Once I establish myself and begin to generate cash, I would like to look more into investing in rental units and flipping properties.I would prefer to be involved in the real estate business in the Pittsburgh and State College areas.Any tips on getting started are much appreciated!

I'm establishing relationships with community banks because they're less concerned with my employment status and more interested in the return on our future investments.
