Lots of great connections all over but we also have a very strong and active contingent here in MA on here so make sure to find them (Set up some keyword alerts to find out about local topics) and get connected.Besides doing that on here make sure to get out to some of the many local investor events we have.  

@Andy Tomlinson    Many brokers perceive different RE related events as liability.. from building homes to fix and flip to owning rentals. 

Here are some steps to get started.Step 1) Develop your Business Model (Who is your ideal seller, buyer, neighborhoods, etc)Step 2) Build a Team (Leverage their experience, Realtor, Attorney, Contractors, Surveyor, Home Inspector, Environmental Contractor, Architect, Structural Engineer, Stage, Photographer, Title Company, etc)Step 3) Understand your market like the back of your hand (Have a Realtor set you up on HOT SHEETS so you get automatic listings sent to your inbox and you can start getting a pulse on the market)Step 3) Find a Deal (Package the deal and show supporting evidence that it's a good deal, get an appraisal if you have to) Include the following: Company Bio w/ your team members on it, Property Details, Property Tax Card, Scope of Work, Pictures/Video, Comparables, Financial Analysis, Due Diligence Items, and Contact Information.Step 4) Find Private Lender Prospects- Sphere of influence, networking events, ask for referrals, ask CPA, ask attorney, etc.

It will be a great networking event. 

Anyways for 15$ bux, I think it'll be worth while checking it out. http://www.breia.com/event/education-networking-night/Cheers!

I used to do the same thing at UNLV sports events, but I was working for a company that donated to the school at the time.

FYI, and for anyone else interested, the FB page for the meetup is at https://www.facebook.com/events/1409127799391630/

He is right though, they do schedule events on the same days a lot.
