Looking for REIA groups
Hey Everyone
New to Bigger Pockets and excited to explore more. I am from the Pacific Northwest and just moved down and looking for meetup groups in Southern California (Im in Orange County).
However I did want to know some more about meetings and groups in CA. The past REIA I went to were focused on Residential and did not talk about the commercial side. Are there any commercial real estate groups or REIA in California?
Also, I don't know if it was just my area but I am looking for groups that have a wide spectrum of people. Investors, Developers, contractors, agents, etc... The group I went to in the past were mostly guys trying to wholesale their deals. Wanted to know if that is most groups or just the ones I was going too?
I am excited to expand my commercial side as well as continue to learn and succeed here in Southern California. Very excited to start a new journey down in Southern California so any groups from Los Angeles to Orange County, let me know!
