New to BP looking to start study group

New to BP looking to start study group

Homeowner · Portland, OR · Member since 2023 · 15 posts · 3 votes

I'm new to BP... although I have a few rentals in my local area, I'm just now starting to seriously research different markets and investing out of state (which brought me to BP and all its glory).

But there is definitely an overwhelming amount of information! Wholesaling, finding deals, structuring deals, evaluating the props, the markets, etc

Would be great to find others that are willing to do a study group with me.

Assign some learning resource(s) like a book, podcasts, blogs, etc and then get together and BS about it.

Currently I'm going through the SMART learning articles on BP website, along with listening to podcasts, and it would be great to review with other BP rookies how they are learning and how any of these new concepts, calculations, strategies, etc. are creating any "ah ha!" moments. I think the knowledge will stick better and a more confident vision for action will be more clear when journeying with a group. It would also hold us accountable to actually do the learning. 

Let me know if youre interested

    Andrew- I'm Local here in Portland. I'm a Realtor and did structural & forensic engineering prior to Real Estate. On the flip side of things, I can run you want you can do to the building, tell you about what it's going to require, and then run a CMA for the finished product so you can get a good idea of the list price. Then you can run the proforma from there to see if the numbers crunch on your end. Feel free to connect with me.

    Hi everyone,

    I know I'm a bit late to this thread, but wanted to mention to all of the Portland folks that I'd recommend checking out Investor Lab - https://investorlab.com/. It's a local group started by Rarebird Real Estate and they have monthly meet-ups geared toward newer investors. Their next meeting is actually tonight and they'll be discussing Commercial opportunities. It's a great group of people and a good resource.

    If anyone ever has any property management-specific questions don't hesitate to reach out. We manage SFHs, condos, and apartment buildings up to around 20 units throughout the Metro area and I'm always happy to answer any questions for people getting started.


    Thanks!
