I went to a great club meeting where the speaker/flipper opperated on a 5% margin, how cold that be.  

Fortunately for me my wife had the time off and managed most of the project.

There may be real estate clubs which meet in your area, or a group on MeetUp, that looks interesting.

How can I find local investor clubs ? 

As a relative newbie to flipping (I see in your profile you've done a few deals), your best bet in my view is to look locally at real estate clubs.  

I belong to a couple of great and FREE real estate investment clubs in the area.
