I am also always interested in networking with like minded individuals.Thanks in advance for the help, and I look forward to networking with you all.

I've had good luck with what you mentioned and also networking (ask EVERYBODY you meet if they know of anyone who's thinking of selling....), wholesalers, driving for dollars.

It is a great place to really network and find folks you need for your team - professionals and jv partners - I want to address the last bit as I work for a loan brokering company.

There are very large Real Estate companies that you would have to compete with.

My plan is to buy my first home when I graduate as a duplex or larger and keep going up from there with house hacking.

Hi I’m looking to connect with a good agent in KC, I’m crushing it in California and getting ready to expand into Kc, I’m selling some of my property’s here in Cali and plan on rolling the money into some multi fam out there. we will be doing sfr flips out there also, if anyone can point me to a good reputable agent that would be great and much appreciated, I’m also looking to network with any local lenders and prop managers....anyone out there feel free to send me a Direct message and let’s connect and make each other some money😁💰

You'd think if the city of Oakland wants to encourage the development of affordable housing, they wouldn't want to prevent small multifamily properties (that account for a lot of the housing stock here) from getting the incentives larger developers do. 

The best advice I can give you is to network with anyone you can, I have been on BP for a little under 6 months, and one of the things I have noticed is most of the experienced investors have little to no time or motivation to talk to new investors.

Check out the nearby members and network at https://www.biggerpockets.com/meet, it will help you a lot to find partners that can help you out in investing. 

:-) What a wealth of info and the ability to network is priceless.Me: 56, California SF Bay Area (East Bay) native, in the tech industry, starting to think seriously about retirement, 4 SFH rentals in SLC area, Albuquerque area, Dallas area, and Memphis (TX and TN are paid off).
