 Kyle, that's great that you run a meet up! I am from Reading but interested, let's talk! 

How's it going, 

I am a dentist working in Boston, MA with a decent amount of book knowledge in REI. I am starting to scan platforms like the MLS (given to me by a trickle through a real estate agent), zillow, etc. and crunch numbers. I am concerned about not having a team ready ahead of time since I am not handy (contractors, lenders, etc.). How important is it to have a list of team members before starting out---Should I just pull the trigger on a place and send an offer if it works financially and learn by trial and error?

While I am currently looking for multi-family duplex/triplex with an eye to use BRRRRR in the north shore area (north of Boston suburbs like Chelsea, Revere, Saugus, Swampscott, etc) class B/C properties, I am wondering whether this strategy in a "tenant-super friendly" state like Massachusetts's with current high interest rates (and therefore high construction/materials/contractor costs) is worthwhile at this time. While I understand the numbers have to fit my agenda, would it be best to look in another state since i live near the NH border?

If there are any associations/ meet ups for new investors on the North shore, I would be interested! Thank you in advance for any guidance
