I really appreciate the support from this platform.

You can put a clause in your lease that requires tenants to meet tradesmen.

I would suggest coming to some investing meet ups and just start talking to others and form a plan based off of that.

I'm currently unfamiliar with how this platform works .

There's an "events and meet ups" section on BP; i would suggest starting there.

These platforms include RentRedi, Stessa, Avail, Innago, Apartments.com (formerly Cozy), and TenantCloud.Pretty much every platform mentioned contains the features you are going to need.

Hi, beginner here looking to join a real estate group in indy.  

I don't want to violate any of the self-promotion rules on this thread by specifically linking or name-dropping, but it's from a data analytics platform I am working on specifically built for tracking construction, debt, and ownership activity in the Philadelphia region.I will be posting more detailed insights soon. 

Are you finding motivated sellers via the typical route of using the prominant software platforms like propwire and propstream?

You have come to the right platform.
