Hi all,I've been a REI for about 3 years now and have finally decided to make the leap and do more deals (the last time I made a deal was 3 years ago, when I started).I've been re-educating myself (books, web) for the past few months and wanted to join a club, meet like minded individuals and learn more from those that are DOING rather than DREAMING.

Similar to the FUD factor.Fear of making a bad deal because of ignorance of what I NEED to know to make an educated decision(s).I am quickly fixing the ignorance part with lots of reading of RE books and with the excellent info and helpers on Bigger Pockets.Soon oh very soon deals will be made :) Actually I am in the process of building my "team" for RE deals.

I am now looking for seminars and home courses to start my education.
