.- Meet people in person. - Be friendly.- Add value.- Trust in Karma to work itself out.- Be helpful. - Add value.- Be genuine. 

That's how I got to my goal in real estate, so I highly encourage everyone to get out there and meet people in person. 

I usually offer an early check in or late checkout when the schedule allows it.One guy checked out 45 min late and my housekeeper sat close to the end of the drive way (she's too nice to pull up to the house), but the guy saw her and must have felt bad and gave her a $20 tip.I dis buy a super capacity washer and dryer since the laundry is the bottle neck in getting the house ready.

We would be happy to meet with you to answer any questions you might have about investing in real estate.

Tulsa Market is great for buy & hold investing. check out our next local meet up, you should swing by and meet some local BP members https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/48...

If you don't trust them, then set up a meeting with 2 other CPAs, pay them for an hour of their time, and see what they think.  

@Chris Irvin Hey Chris, nice to meet you.

@Matthew Charron I do hope someone takes you up on your offer.In case no one does though, I'd recommend you attend a local real estate investor group like Black Diamond REI in southern Mass. or RI Real Estate Investors Group in RI.You'd want to engage several people in conversation, particularly during the times at the beginning and end of the meetings when folks typically network, and maybe ask a few folks out to coffee.Many people look for "mentors", and that might work for you, but another approach to consider would be just to try making friends with people who are one or two steps ahead.So maybe they're not successful full-time investors (the Holy Grail of Mentor-seeking), but instead own one or two rental properties, or have done one or two successful flips, or really anything in one of the directions you want to go.I find that can be easier to achieve, and you can get a lot out of it because such folks are very familiar with the challenges you face - after all, it wasn't long ago they were at that same point themselves.

I'm eager to meet people in the area and learn from them.

I am looking to meet other investors in my area that flip homes.
