Hello everyone,
I am a resident physician interested in getting started in real estate investing. I will finish residency in the summer of 2023 but I would like to get started prior. I am interested in connecting with people from Connecticut- I moved to Hartford and CT a little over a year ago. How do I find out more about the meetups?
I am new to everything and am trying to learn little by little. At first glance, I am perhaps interested in obtaining a physician home loan. My short term goal is learn more and eventually obtain my first rental.

I agree with @William Collins I have been to Steph Cabral's meet up. It is the 2nd Tuesday of the month at Hooker brewery in Hartford. Great venue and the people are great also. 2 months ago was a huge turn out, now with the mask mandate going on it seems to have tapered off a bit but still had a great meet up and got to really know some other investors in depth at the last meeting.

Good day. Events can be found by searching here or the MeetUp site itself. I host a monthly MeetUp that alternates along I84 in Danbury or Brewster. Feel free to reach out to chat about any questions. Some of my contact info is in my profile. Much success. Bob

Hey Andrew! There are a ton of great markets to own small multi family around Hartford. I would suggest house hacking by owner-occupying a 4 unit and using a 3.5% down FHA loan to start as long as that suits your current lifestyle. Small multifamily properties in this area have good numbers I bring a lot of NY investors up there to purchase properties.

@Account Closed if in the Hartford area. Also check out the CT REIA events in Rocky Hill. Different audience, some overlap, different vibes- go find your tribe.
