Hey@Chase Busick if you are looking to connect with other high level investors and "sharpen the saw," then consider coming to Costa Rica with us in April for a high-level investor retreat.

Two quick moves: set a simple buy box so you’re not chasing everything, and analyze a handful of real listings each week using a basic cash flow calculator, then sanity‑check rents with a local PM.What’s the first deal you’re aiming for—property type, price range, and target rent—and which market are you eyeing for that first purchase?

I'd recommend attending local free events & REIA's to chat with more in your area.If it is a single family home, is it worth overpaying for - to chase the high end prospective returns?

People chase “high potential rent” or “perfect ARVs” the same way flippers chase “perfect deals.”

You aren't chasing updates, you are chasing people.

@Chase Calhoun Keep up the great work sir.

Are you chasing freedom, legacy, or lifestyle?

They chase designer kitchens, luxury flooring, and features that look great on Instagram but add nothing to long-term profitability.

Look for investors who actively participate in local meetups, networking events, and online communities, and develop relationships over time rather than chasing one-off deals.
