That is not a group of men with skills who are going out into the wild, or into the workshops and performing labor or merchanting and creating something of value for the whole of society to benefit and charging for their effort.

As an investor and a property manager, I have found that joining your local landlord association is seriously one of the best moves you can make.Here are the benefits I see:Legal updates & support – Stay out of trouble and up to date on changing laws.Events & education – Workshops, Q&As, great info sharing.Discounts – On screenings, contractors, materials—you name it.Networking – Swap stories, advice, and referrals with other landlords.

I ended up signing up for their two day workshop in Dallas with note school.  

I attended the Tax Lien Wealth Builders workshop in Atlanta a few weeks ago. 

Then I checked their positive reviews and discovered that the people who gave them 5 stars were rating them highly on the Tax & Asset Protection workshops.

https://ratherbeproperties.com/I also attended a workshop hosted by https://www.stayclassyhomes.com/, and they were specially really knowledgable about San Diego.

I've been through several real estate programs and sat through many workshops, webinars, etc. and became frustrated from each because I could never speak to the front man and all of the answers to my questions were vague and unclear.

Multitude of reasons for this,  some is just ignorance at this stage, did not perceive the value in driving an hour to Detroit to attend a workshop discussing the benefits of investing in RE, maybe that is not the value in them, idk, hence my ignorance.

Instead of approaching them individually, I collaborate with custodians/administrator of SDIRA and conduct educational workshops about private money lending. 

That was a big expense for the workshop.
