There are still occasional ones that pop up and make sense but not many.

I will occasionally do a "I'll be there tonight fixing a few things, if you want to come by" for the people that just cant make the open house due to work etc.

I have been listening to the podcast, reading books, reading forum post, and occasionally attending my local REI ( I know shame on me).

  :) I have an agent who will occasionally give me a good pre-market deal. 

I sometimes feel like I'm on an island and would love to form a small group of "co-workers" who would enjoy the occasional get together / coffee / brainstorming so we can help each other move to the next level.

About 5 miles away. 1 more raccoon is hanging around occasionally but I read the riot act to the tenants leaving trash out and it’s mostly stopped.

Occasionally, I need to take care of an issue, but mostly, it's handled by my contractors.

You MUST be willing to occasionally travel to your properties or send someone who is deeply invested in the property like you are - not your own PM.

Yes occasionally.

Occasionally, if the winner fails to pay and you were the second-highest bidder, you will be expected to make the purchase.
