@Damon Moore Georgia REIA (google as I don't think I can post the website) has an entire calendar of events each month from their monthly member meeting to the group meetings based on interest, e.g.

Based on my experience, I strongly believe that investing in a Hollywood property with a pool can provide the best overall return on investment (ROI) and speculative value growth in the area.

There must be quite a gap under those doors.And what about all the base molding?

So any person that comes your way, you evaluate them based off the probability of the listing being closed on(via representation as the buyer or seller, or both).Someone offering 10% under list isn't a tire kicker; they're looking to get the deal done.

Right now we are in the process of acquiring land to build a childcare center with a duplex on the property as a rental.  

They trust me based on my rep on social media, Youtube, etc and if they don't trust me, they learn after 1-2 offers are submitted (not high enough) and they do not get property.

Looking forward to connecting with you. best strategy I've come up with after 10 years of experience in columbus is to build new construction multifamily with equity. 50k land purchase, 10k soft cost / rezoning / permitting, 300k hard cost, refinance and is worth 500k. build - Rent - refinance - repeat. if you want to buy old properties I would but no agent is going to stay on with you and you only get some diluted version of what they call a contractor who probably isn't licensed.

For you, choosing will be based on different things such as how steady the area is where your property is, your plans for investing over a long time and the state of your money matters.

You've landed in the perfect spot to kickstart your networking and learning journey.
