Hi there, I would be interested in joining your meet up to learn from people in the area.  

You have several opportunities to meet investors during your visit.Sept 19 7pm - Tidewater Real Estate Investors Group (TRIG)P meeting. 

The first was a primary residence turned investment when I moved out and rented it so this feels like my first intentional investment.I am looking at duplexes and triplexes in the Philadelphia area [I'm from a suburb of Philly] and have been going right to the listing agents to schedule appointments to view properties since scheduling is a challenge with most of the properties fully occupied.

The problem you have is that even if you meet the down payment banks will want your "skin in the game"  meaning they will only do the deal if you are putting in cash.   

If anyone is in the area and would like to meet up send me a message, I live, breath, and love RE!

Looking forward to meeting you!

I am planning to visit some properties, meet with local contractors and RE agents, etc. 

example only :  58th North Hampton or 27th West Brown street Next time you are in Wisconsin : let's meet up to talk about raising funds over coffee

HelloQuick scenario is I got an off market property large enough to subdivide square footage wise however the lot is odd shaped so when I split the lots to meet the minimum widths the one lot falls short approximately 800 square feet.

@Kay FerdousOne more suggestion:  In your analysis of the property to see if it meets the grade, do not count ancillary income (especially laundry).
