I have established a good relation with a bank located downtown in Miami Florida since I opened an account years back and my father is an investor himself.I will certainly start watching those webinars here at biggerpockets to get more details, but I am more appreciated hearing peoples experiences and points of view about the areas I have mentioned above regarding population growth and cash flow properties in those places.I am really happy to hear your feedback and will be following for some more.

I've watched alot of the podcasts and read through dozens of forum posts before setting up an account. 

I will comment to watch out for two reasons:1: School district problems2: GE appears to be moving on (on the plus side, you have a 1 million square foot Lord Corporation facility on upper Peach St.)Other than that, I think there are some golden nuggets to be found.

Read more books, listen to podcasts, watch youtube videos, or however you like to consume information about real estate, entrepreneurship, and mindset. 

I've been able to locate investors (though I haven't reached out to them) using tax records of properties I've been watching that are available for rent or currently under rehab.

I kind of got hung up on figuring the ARV, even after reading up and watching the video, but that is entirely different story.  

At BP, not only can you connect with other real estate investors, you can become more knowledgeable with real estate by taking the free online courses and watching the free online video tutorials.

I stumbled across the Bigger Pockets Podcast on YouTube a few months ago and have watched upwards of 30 shows.  

My name is Asya and I have been in love with real estate for years...always browsing through listings, watching HDTV, even attempted to buy a house last year (did not work out).

At BP, you can watch and learn from the free online videos and courses that BP has to offer.
