Would love to connect to hear more about your experiences as well and any PM recommendations.  

I would recommend leveraging the BP forums to connect with existing syndicators.

It's mostly Class A properties, a few Class B.You may find the below copy & paste info useful in addressing your question:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

The priority is consistent recommendations from active investors. 

This is prime real estate, and is just about the last piece of land in this area.I have begun to develop a commercial property that I own with contractor garages, which is the extent of my experience in this space.I'm trying to get a sense of how to structure something like this, with using LP's, and also partnering with a builder, and carving something out in that regard.Does anyone have recommendations on who is currently working in this space and could provide some insight?

If you don’t know how to estimate repairs, I would recommend using a tool like Blue Hammer.

Any help or recommendations would be greatly appreciated! 

@Pat Aboukhaled can you recommend one of those investor meetups that you think would be good for a newbie like me?

If you can come in and operate effectively I think you'll find success rather quickly due to that.BTW - for a property management platform I would highly recommend Buildium.

@Anthony Acosta another recommendation you connect with @Samuel Eddinger!
