New investor trying to get my feet wet.

Hello all. I am a new investor and trying to get started in wholesaling. I am a 33 yo professional in banking. I have been with my company for 13 years and excited to start something new with real estate. I am very excited and hungry for deals. Does anyone know of any real estate meet ups in the Los Angeles area. I would love to go and maybe meet some people who are open to talking and sharing with a new investor. I ultimately would love to see how I can help on deals or learn. Any advice would be great. I have been reading and listening to pod casts and I feel that my knowledge is plenty but I have some questions I would love to go over with someone experienced. Well I hope you all have a great day and thank you all in advance for any help you provide.

@Dan Zamora If you go to the meetup site there are plenty of real estate groups that you can participate in for free in your area. They are actually quite informative and typically have a wide variety of experience levels. At the very least, it's a great place to exchange business cards, network, and develop relationships. I'd also recommend going to the court house auction sales. Many investors are fairly social before the auction starts or in between offerings. You don't have to buy anything to go. Plus it's a good experience to see that side of real estate.
Cheers and best of luck to your investment goals!

Thank you @Dave Visaya! I am super excited to learn!
@Joe Hughis Thank you so much for that information. I am super excited to attend my first meet up. I have heard of them and know some mortgage reps that go to network. I just never thought about trying that until I heard it on BP podcast.
Do you happen to know of any good real estate lead list site I could use? I don't want to waste money on something that is not going to provide enough information or the information I am looking for. I like to use things that are tried and true. I want to start looking up in other areas and just try to start analyzing properties.
Any advice is greatly appreciated and thank you again!
@Leslie Pappas I cant wait!
