Hello To All,

I am a new investor trying to get started. I know that the best way of networking is attending your local REI Clubs, but I am located in Buffalo New York and I dont think that there are any REI Clubs in my area. So my option for attending my local REI Club is out. What do I do now? I also know that I can look at the ads in the local newspaper and see if there any ad that may be from investors, I can also call for rent ads to see if they maybe interested in anymore properties etc. I think I have a good idea of everything now I just have to take get up and just do it. I know that I have to stop being afraid of communicating with others because communicating is the key. Another thing that is holding me back is the lack of funds. And because of this I would like to start out buy doing some wholesaling and then buy and hold. I dont have great credit and I dont have any money so I really dont know where to start from. I would like to wholesale properties flip properties and also hold properties. Is there any one that can give me some advice on what I should do?

I think you should cut back your expenses as much as possible. Pick up a second job. Live as simply as possible. How bad do you want it? With no money and no credit, my only REI advice to you is bird-dogging for now until your personal financial situation improves.

Thanks For the advice.

Did you try a google search for ‘buffalo new york investors REI club’? the first result that came up for me listed quite a few clubs in the Buffalo area. I would suggest attending a few meetings and begin networking with people that are doing what you want to be doing. See if you can buy them lunch and pick their brain.
