REIA in Bay Area?
Hi guys,
As I'm becoming more involved in the real estate investing world, I've found many groups in the Bay Area on Meetup who's events I attend regularly. These groups have been very educational and great for networking, but I don't think any of them have affiliation to the Real Estate Investors Association.
Does anyone know of an official REIA group in the Bay Area? Does it even matter if it is officially a REIA as long as I'm seeing a good benefit from the meetings?
Thanks,
Nick

I am in Pleasanton and have been looking for meet ups. Can you clue me in on some?
Thank you

The Meetup groups I am a part of so far include:
Bay Area Real Estate Investment Club, Bay Area Real Estate Investment Group, Bay Area Real Estate Moguls, Diversified Investment Clubs & East Bay Real Estate Investing Club. They are all listed on the Meetup app and most have weekly or monthly recurring meetings. All good stuff!
