Hello BiggerPockets! I started getting into RE investing over the past 6 months (have a 4 unit, SFR, and am closing on sober living facility). Focusing on Colorado Springs and a little on Denver.

Primarily looking for buy and hold multifamily properties and just launched my first direct mail campaign.

I haven’t done as good of a job of networking as I should. While I’m an experienced businessman, I definitely need to connect with experienced people in real estate 

This is such a great community. Looking forward to being a part of it!

Welcome to the forums Leo, I'm intrigued by the idea of a sober living facility, is that in The Springs or Denver?

 Thanks @Daniel Haberkost!  It's in Denver.  From what I gather, there is definitely a need in the Springs. I'm also not the operator.  Purchasing the property and renting it back under an extended lease.

Hi Leo,

I am a real estate agent and flipper in the Denver metro area. I would love to hear more about the sober living projects. I had a friend back in the day that got involved in sober living and found it to be lucrative as well as spiritually uplifting. 

@Leo Tokar yes, I think there’s absolutely need for that here too, interesting niche!

Hi, welcome.  

I've been in RE for two years and I primarily invest in the East Coast for buy and holds but I have great contacts with investor friendly realtors and lenders out in Colorado Springs.  Please reach out if you're looking for 

Welcome. This is a great place to be.  I vaguely remember one of the podcasts had a guest that invested in group homes. It appears to be a fairly secure niche.  Most group homes have some kind of funding or government grants to operate.
