New (ish) member in Jacksonville FL area

[Eugene Kemp]

Good Morning!

I have been on this site for a month or so now and reading and participating in various discussions, and really enjoy what I've experienced so far. I am semi-retired, and have a few local SFR's that are on fairly solid ground and providing me that retirement income supplement that I'd hoped for.

I have 2 questions for the local Jacksonville, FL REI community.

1. My wife and I are considering joining the Jacksonville REIA. Wondering if it is worth the $300 a year to become a member? Any readers here members? Wife is an active real estate agent locally.

2. One of our rentals is mortgage free, and I'm considering taking some cash out of that to purchase another rental or for down payment on a rehab project.  Anyone have any suggestions on how to or who to deal with to best obtain this type of financing?

Thanks in advance for any comments.

Eugene Kemp good morning sir. I am new as well and just joined Jax REIA last week and it's only 300 the first year, 175 the and 99 the third year and there after. Just in my week I can say the REIA is WELL WORTH IT. Just in knowledge you'll get your money back with no issues. I say go for it and hopefully I'll see you around here or in Jacksonville. It's a small world hope that helps take care sir.
