Find a local meetup and go to it every month at least.

Hey @Eric Forsberg I am always looking to connect with local investors.

ive been mostly looking for conventions but everything ive found is along the lines of "Grant cardone featuring david goggins panel; buy your tickets for $400 and network like never before" - anything more aligned/tailored for local investors? 

I'm interested in starting a distribution center in my warehouse.

I also have local resources and references I can share. 

I'm an active Realtor and investor and on the board of our local REIA.

If they are insuring the property in its current state, it's likely that a new buyer will also be able to obtain insurance without trouble.As for the mortgage aspect, the key factor will be ensuring that the house, including the patio "room" and its roof, meets all local building codes and standards.

Look up your local rules. 

Mostly, you’ll be renting to local residents (some of whom may be employed by the university), but they’re not paying the rents that students are.

Some lenders also upcharge you and use this as a profit center, so avoid that if you can.
