And network with the locals at the REIAs and meet ups. 

But really, in my mind, say you stay there and do some repairs and paint and furniture in the beginning, then maybe some time in between, you might meet those required days.

There has to be a local group where I can meet fellow investors, realtors, contractors etc. 

I hope to meet a few of you here and I hope to learn a lot from you!

At the local meet several agents walk up to the group introduce themselves stating they have tape and are wholeseller, pocket listings when I notice their license number signaling they are brand new realtors with ZERO transactions that is the end of it.

im in a hot location that is pretty much zero vacancy. 

ask for more - money back at settlement - guarantees to survive settlement, all chattels in buildingsadd commercial real estate to your wish list of opporltunitesif you become discourage and frustrated - go flip a few junk houses for practice and cash flowattend auctions - watch the activity closely - meet your competition - collect cards - build a buyers listdo something every day related to your personal real estate and financial goals DON'T GIVE UP!

To meet this objective you have to consider your All-in Costs (Purchase price, Rehab Cost, Holding and Closing costs).   

You can add late fees automatically and there are no excuses for things like, arranging time to meet, or not having another check...

keep up the community and hopefully I can meet everyone at some point or another :)Rosy
