Matt,

Welcome to BP. I have to say John K. Suggesting you avoid your local REIA is a terrible idea. I have never been to Madison REIA, however I do network with the gentleman that runs it. Just because he offers a mentoring package does not mean the REIA doesn't benefit the members who choose not to use the mentoring. I run a REIA in Central WI and just like Madison, we focus on education and mentoring. You will get alot of good info on BP, but local networking is a huge part of being successful.

Happy Investing
