Think about your ideal tenant and work backwards.For example, if you want to attract those that like bike rides, set up a bike rack.

After a couple years of analysis paralysis, I have finally decided to take the plunge and invest in at least 1 property before the end of 2020.I found bigger pockets through Choose FI, a financial freedom podcast, and have been hooked after listening to my first episode.For my first property, I would ideally like to invest in a multi family or single family in either Baltimore City or county.The tenants I'm targeting are students and young professionals.I have worked with several real estate agents, but they either do not seem to know a lot about investing, or do not have enough time to even accommodate me to my requested showings.To the more experienced investors in the Baltimore area:Can anybody make any recommendations for smaller real estate investor meetups for 50 or less people?

@Danny Lee I would agree with @David Stumpf, if you can invest locally at first, that is ideal.

I am a Loss Mitigator and I deal with Real Estate Short Sale Transactions and Modifications all day.

if so, I could paint your tub for 100 years and youd be just hitting $2000 based on the way I deal with my prized investors hehe!!

My ideal situation would be passing along a qualified lead then making a fee if the deal closes.

Would love to start mapping out some areas I'd ideally want to start doing this in as well.

Your ads need to resonate with your ideal audience.Also if you are  not using the right budget, you may never get a lead, which brings me to the following step.You need to calculate your Cost/Deal.You also calculate your cost/lead.

What LTV % would you say your portfolio is currently at and where would you ideally like it to be on average most of the time?
