Beginner investor conventions

[Dalton Kent]

Hey everyone, 

I’m 20 years old and I currently do not own a rental property yet. I’m from a small town in south Alabama and would like to attend a conference or two to help meet some investors or maybe even find a mentor! Any suggestions on conferences?

Go to NETWORK at the top of your screen and you can search for other investors and investment groups in your area. You can also check meetup.com or search facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

@Dalton Kent start learning and putting in the time. You are young and have time on your hand and likely not much funds. Going to an expensive conference with little to add to the ones you meet other than time could be a waste. Find local meet ups and on the network tab, along with meetup.com and get after it.

Read and consume as much info as you can best of luck!

Dalton, if you'd like help creating your profile to establish credibility with our community, shoot me a message. I've been working at BP for a while now and would love to help. I grew up in Alabama too, so I can only help if you're an Alabama fan lol. 

I'd listen to the recommendations made by Nathan and Chris. By localizing your forum feed, you'll be able to follow the conversations happening in Mobile within the BiggerPockets community. 

Happy investing!
