Whoever you consider working with in the future I highly recommend you thoroughly vet them, and that should include a visit to the market to meet with the team, see their work and the neighborhoods they invest in. 

Looking for recommendations on real-estate meetings/groups?

@Marlon Long 20 isn’t a large response as the majority won’t meet your rental criteria

When I close on a house, before I meet with any GCs I always walk the property with my listing agent.

Hello Jay,it copies and paste a little backward.. but by my sending this in and subsequent meetings with the state of Oregon investigators its clear that assigning contracts with no intention to buy IE its your business model and advertising in ANY manner a property you don't own is simply illegal in this state.. 

Would love to meet with local investors, agents or PM.

Now working in real estate inxreasing the odds of meeting those people.  

@Gerald BarronIn that case, countering would be a great way to meet in the middle.

May help to get involved in those meetings, if you are in the multifamily space.  

I will be in the area on 10/25 and 10/26 and would love to meet up with another Broker, Investor or Property Manager.
