Decide how much money you have access to, & the zip codes, city or state you want to focus on.

Read the property code....especially section 92. 

See if they have any special programs.)Don't be disappointed if they want you to have another $10,000 or a longer work history or if they seem skeptical about your ability to be a new landlord. 

@Rick Giles I don’t believe there’s any special license to sell or lease commerical space.

Pursuant to this law, if a building doesn't have a residential certificate of occupancy, which would require landlords to bring fire and safety codes current, they can't evict tenants from living there.The celebs' building doesn't have the required certificate so they can't be evicted.They owe the landlord $120,000!!!

I'll likely buy a house again in the area where I'm retired.I built my wealth mostly by taking advantage of the 401K, IRA, and HSA mechanisms of the tax code.

Others prefer individually picking vendors one at a time and building a more complex but also more specialized team.

This is purely to meet code, so small landing platforms, cheap materials...just utilitarian in nature.

Then go to Meetup, and you can search by zip code and by keyword, use "real estate" or "real estate investing".
