I'm sure you'll read a lot of introductions where individuals sing the praises of the BP Podcasts!

Either way, the agenda is something like this: there is typically a room and a stage, people shuffle into the seats, then sometimes there are introductions of everyone in the room (you give your name and experience or interest in REI), then the presentation starts and you sit/listen, and are allowed to ask related questions throughout.

Best of luck to you in your investing :)https://www.biggerpockets.com/courses/a-beginners-introduction-to-real-estate-investing

I know some people in the real estate business in and around Charlotte and may be able to make some networking introductions to get you started.

Hi all. My name is Carl Gorson. I have been a member of BP for a few weeks now, though I have been crushing podcasts on you tube at 3 or 4 a day, for about a month and a half, as well as watching webinars. I am 54 yea...

Very comprehensive.

I haven't included individual property research yet as it will be a much more comprehensive and detailed section.

I've talked to a few potential candidates over the last two weeks, and I started a relatively comprehensive online marketing campaign (Facebook & promotion & Instagram, online rent portals, even giving away gift cards for referrals).

As it may be obvious, because I am writing this in the "New Member Introduction" forum, I am new here.  

Some great answers already, @Joseph Pugliese and @Corby Goade did a good job of stealing my thunder about visual cues. 1 - Make a great self introduction to tenants.2 - Telegraph your intentions by making common area improvements - make big, bold, VISUAL improvements.3 - Send formal, well written rent increase letters.
