Looking to start a Real estate Meetup in the Poconos

Looking to start a Real estate Meetup in the Poconos

Rental Property Investor · East Meadow New york · Member since 2014 · 232 posts · 96 votes

Hello all, wanted to gauge the communities interest on attending a FREE real estate meetup in the Poconos. It would take place monthly in the Blakeslee/ Mount Pocono area. This meetup is not intended to sell anything only add value and exchange resources amongst those who are currently investing or looking to learn how to invest in real estate. Feel free to DM with any specific questions or just to connect.

Hey John, thanks for posting.  I'd definitely be interested in something like this, I appreciate the initiative!  

@Mark Miles, I know we've had this discussion before, but a lot of us have invested very successfully in the Poconos, and built a good community there.  I don't really understand what value you think you're adding to the forums by relentlessly posting these kinds of messages.  It certainly does not align with any of my experiences in the region. 

Best,

Scott

    @John Geldert - has this come to fruition yet? I am definitely interested - not currently an owner but have two offers out this week and actively looking to invest here - specifically Lake Harmony/JFBB area.

    Thanks for your interest, we are still working on the logistics and plan to have something ready for mid to late May. Will update this forum once we have something on the calendar.

    Please add me to the list. I have two STRs in Pocono Pines and an offer out on a third. BTW, definitely a slow April. Assuming everyone else is experiencing the same?

    Hey, looking to invest in poconos for STR. Do you mean slow to rent or slowed down as in buying/selling?

    @Manjari Pandey noted.

    Yes agree the reservations for April have slowed compared to last year. Think the unseasonably cold weather may have something to do with it.

    Thanks! Yes, I self manage, but I do work with a local cleaner that helps when in a pinch, and either myself or my husband are up there about once a week. We are in Downingtown, PA which is about 1:45 away, so not too bad. How about you?
