Others rely on networking... hooking up with probate or divorce attorneys who sometimes have leads on properties that aren’t widely marketed.If you decide to hire a property manager in the Jasper area, maybe chat with a few owners who’ve used them.

This has probably been the one thing that has helped me scale my portfolio so much and so quickly within the past 6 years.So the things that I would bring to the table that a new investor wouldn’t have access to (at least at the beginning until they build their own systems and networks) would be my knowledge and streamlining of getting financing, having deal flow, using vetted and skilled subcontractors, discounted prices on materials, systems in place to find tenant buyers, and streamlined refinancing and management in placeIt is similar to turnkey, only you don’t have to put 25% down and you walk into equity and the exit is already planed and the tenant buyer gets connected with a lender upfront to help them get ready to exercise in the option within 3 years.So that is what makes this different than other models.

@Mitchel Johnson Welcome to BP and I wish you the best in investing..Usually people start by going to local meetups and building a network of trusted people to get their feet wetHere is an examplehttps://www.meetup.com/find/?

Add this to smaller network and typically less knowledge for new RE investors.  

Quote from @Abhijit Roy choudhury: Financial Crime enforcement Network, requires reporting of Beneficial Ownership Information filing by 01/01/2025.Does this apply to us, Rental LLC owners.

I'd be happy to network.  

network with local agents to see where they took theres. but not much to it but go with who you feel comfortable with.

Unless less you are a system-building guru and strong networker, if that's that case out of state investing should be more up your alley.

would love to help in anyway i can. go to networking events in your area. you can find them on many different apps. best of luck on your journey, keep learning then take action

I know building a reliable local network will be key, so I'm hoping to connect with experienced real estate team in the area.The military presence in Jacksonville catches my eye, and I'm particularly interested in properties that might appeal to military personnel and the associated contractors.
