I
attended the One Rental at a Time (ORaaT) conference in Las Vegas, where real estate enthusiasts gathered to learn from guest speakers and network. The event's format included Q&A sessions and networking opportunities that allowed attendees to connect with like-minded individuals. My main takeaway was the importance of surrounding yourself with people who share similar goals and passions.

    As I observed the attendees, it became clear that being in a room with others who are driven by real estate investing can be incredibly motivating. People were sharing their experiences, asking questions, and offering advice to one another. I saw networks expanding, connections forming, and momentum building as investors at different stages of their journey came together.

    The advice to surround yourself with people who share your goals is not new, but experiencing it firsthand was a powerful reminder of its importance. When you're surrounded by others who are working towards the same objectives, you learn from them, connect with them, and gain momentum. This can be especially helpful for prospective real estate investors who may feel isolated or uncertain about their next steps.

    The conference's speakers offered valuable insights on acquisition strategies and market trends, but it was the collective energy of the attendees that left a lasting impression on me. As I reflected on my experience, I realized that being part of a community like this can be a game-changer for anyone looking to break into real estate investing.
