I'd recommend attending and networking at some local investor meet ups.

I also run a Professional Landlord business and may be interested in leasing your property to sub-lease to a end-use tenant.

Hi Max, I always love helping out fellow investors and sharing my network!

They can help navigate the process, verify the legitimacy of the deal, and handle legal aspects.Inspection and Appraisal: Before making any decisions, have the property professionally inspected and appraised.

Many of the local experts/professionals have those markets locked down. 

And if you hire professional help, then the cost is much higher, too.There is some room for interpretation on whether you must indeed take this route or can get away with simpler filing.

@Anna BrownYou recently created a post about raising capital for your real estate investments.If you work with a CPA - you want to work with a professional who understands debt and equity agreements with investors and what you are responsible for doing.There are a couple of CPA's within Biggerpockets.

I am looking to get connected with real estate groups and attend some networking events. 

Readers are advised to seek professional advice.

@Graham M.I would definitely like to get together with a group to do some networking.
