The best way to find an investor friendly broker is at a RE meetup, but you can also just ask around in your local network or google.

I’m still getting a feel for this platform and starting to adapt to the newer ways of networking and marketing.

I should have a person I know at each of the colleges I'm looking at going to that can give me an insight on their networks.

I was looking for partners in my network who wanted to JV on this property, but they wanted to know for certain that the title was clear since it was through a wholesaler and not "traditionally" through a realtor.   

For networking, check out local BiggerPockets meetups or real estate investor groups in Orange County.

There are a bunch of great investors who are more than happy to share and network (including myself). 

I am particularly interested in understanding various investment strategies, networking with experienced investors, and finding my first rental property.I believe that learning from others' experiences is invaluable, and I am here to absorb as much knowledge as I can.

Grow your network in your sleep. 

Podcasts and networking have been the key for me.

It really highlights the value of having strong partnerships, effective marketing, and a sharp eye for profitable properties.One takeaway here is the importance of leveraging connections and networks to identify similar quick-turnaround opportunities.
