Some of the key things I've learned is to build a network of people who can offer what you are looking for, get involved in the community here and go to local meetups.

@Edmund RiveraWelcome to the site.What type of deals are you looking to get yourself involved in?

They charge $250/hr for any involvement in contract negotiations beyond initial preparation, which is about regular attorney hourly rate.

New to this site and I am excited to get involved.

For the purpose of this conversation, would you make a distinction between someone who is otherwise-involved in the industry (e.g.

(I assure you there was no electroshock therapy involved. ^^)Simple practices such as visualization and meditation became a regular part of daily routines.Anyways, overcoming my fears and embracing a new mindset was key in helping me to begin networking with others here on BiggerPockets which has lead directly or indirectly to all of my real estate successes!

I understand that any facet of real estate investing involves work ethic, attitude, and of course people skills.

Hi good to see new people getting involved in this field but my only advice I can give is find a job doing anything save so you could at least start a marketing campaign and grow from there.

And yes, the EXPO is a good opportunity to see prices rise again, at least until 2020.I've met many different people involved in RE in Dubai and I can divide then into two types: those who bought in early 2000 who saw values double in less than one year and those who tried to follow the first ones and lost a huge amount of money.

I completely agree that it is important to get involved with all kinds of motivated sellers.
