I attended my first local Real Estate Investors meeting today

[Jason DeBraux]

I recently joined my local Real Estate Investors club in my area and the topic of today's meeting was using OPM (Other People's Money).  I was actually excited that I didn't feel lost in the meeting with all the different acronyms they used thanks to BP.  I actually got to meet and socialize with some of the local investors in the area.  We had a "soft" money lender do a presentation on how his company loans to investors all over the country and how their rates are much more reasonable than a hard money lender.  I'm still wet behind the ears but I'm glad that I was in the room with people in the business and I plan to attend more meetings in the future and eventually get a property under contract.
