It has been recommended to attend a local meetup, but what do I say?

I started off with a few house hacks before I did a BRRRR here in Columbus, Ohio Thank you for that, I have two properties that were turnkey in my local market.

Are you using a local property management company?

We practice the BRRRR model of investing and are operating just south of Charlotte in SC.A great place to network and possibly find a good contractor may be local REIA meetups.

Local REI meetups tend to be a good option to find good PMs (especially high touch MTR PM). 

The break in talking due to plane noise the locals refer to as the Pt Loma pause.  

I specialize in helping foreign investors setup investments in Dubai and work with experienced local companies, so the process will be handled by us from A to Z like we've done countless times before. 

Is there someone you can report her to at the local housing office?

I realize that the difference between a few city blocks can make a difference, so local knowledge is welcome!

Talk to a lender that specializes in VA lending, preferably a local one.
