@Michael Orlando Atomic Habits great. Also give The Slight Edge a read. Very similar in message but both offer different perspectives/voices.

Does any body have a subscription to crexi intellegence? Is it useful? How does it compare to CoStar, Reonomy...others?

@Account Closed I live in Colorado but am looking to invest in Louisville myself. Message me if you would like to connect. I'd love to hear more about your plans.

Hi @Marlen Weber! I prefer in-person meetups as well, but there are definitely advantages to having these virtual meetups. It's very nice not having to drive 30 minutes to get to a meetup after work. These days I can eat dinner with my family and just sneak off downstairs to network and talk real estate. I think after the socially distancing stuff comes to an end I will do both in-person and virtual meetups, though all things considered I think virtual is the way to go now.

@Tyler D. Have you considered passively investing in apartment syndications? You can experience a lot of the perks of owning real estate (cashflow, tax benefits...etc) without having to be actively involved in finding deals or operations. It sounds like it might be a great option based on your post.

@Garrett Schmidt Cincinnati is seeing job growth and diversification and is already a great cashflow market. It is very important to know the market and submarkets there though. Good luck!

@Eric Van Deman can you share more info on MarkOne's origination fee and any other costs?

I think brokers are still the best way to go, but I agree that people are overpaying and it's tough to find a deal that pencils. I'm starting a direct to seller campaign myself to see if I can find deals before they go to this overpriced market.

@Jim Froehlich what markets are you looking in?

@Justin G.

1. GP in 3 syndications

2. Wholesale 1 MF property per month

3. Exit W2

@Jason Malabute that is a great plan. Thank you for sharing.
