Martin is speaking on a great topic :-) Andrew, I've heard a lot of great things about David's meetups, so driving up from San Francisco to share about a low-capital way to get into the market.

I have been reading several guides which are available on the forum and listening to podcasts here as well and can tell that this is very helpful for a newbie like me.Even that I do not have as much knowledge as most of the members here, but please let me know if there is any way I can help or share something with you.Looking forward to learning and networking with this great community.

I hope to connect with people who are much smarter than I am who are willing to share their knowledge about real estate investing. 

Folks, can anyone share contacts who can do painting cheap and well?

Wouldn't that eliminate most of the broker's share, and save on the self employment taxes?

Another question, i'm sure you'll see it in the other thread that you shared with me.

My own experience is below and thought I'd share in case this is helpful to anyone else. 

To gain some liquid capital, I am thinking about wholesaling in the very begininng, hopefully that's a smart idea as this idea is share by a RE investor who's doing well.

Would be happy to connect with you and share what I've experienced in the Atlanta region so far.

I've built a portfolio of 18 properties in Yonkers, I know the city very well and would be happy to share some insights.
