I'm interested in buy and hold investment property strategies and BRRR strategies, particularly in 2-4 unit family houses, and will probably pull off my first deal through a house-hack.I'm seeking investors from my area because 1) I think it would be very cool to have a circle of local area investors that are all connected with each other and 2) Even a quick phone call or a chat over a cup of coffee with an investor who has actually gone through the process of a few deals would be an awesome opportunity for me.So, if you're from this area or know someone from this area, then please comment!

Doing a "Goal Seek" operation in Excel can get you to a price that makes sense for your business model.

I guess what I am trying to say is make sure that you have put in the work, the time and the sacrifice and when you have done that I guarantee that through your actions and occasional questions Mentors , partners, coaches and colleagues will be seeking you out!  

I would like to get my first deal done with someone who knows the game and unfortunately nobody close to me is in this business, so I'm here seeking connections and possibly some help.
