Hi everyone! I started REI in the latter half of last year and let's just say I decided I needed a cheaper education than the one I was getting by just blindly charging in :).

I'm in Seattle metro area, King County.  My main focus is the I5 corridor from Everett to Blaine but I'll take a deal wherever it leads me.  Currently looking to buy & hold.  I'm looking to expand my networking list - how can I find meetups in my areas?  The Seattle and Tacoma forums are pretty quiet.

The BP community so far looks great, and I love the positive attitude and cooperative spirit.  

Cheers,

-Gabe

Welcome Gabe! The BP site is an incredible resource from the forums to the blogs and podcasts. If you are logged in on the BP homepage, there is a section on the right hand side of the page titled “local events”. You can find meetups there. Also, you can find meetups on meetup.com. 

I would recommend that you set up keyword alerts for the cities you are interested in. You will get notified whenever those cities show up in the forums. This will let you see who is actively investing or working those areas. Just reach out to those folks and BOOM

For Everett, you may talk to @Account Closed. He is very knowledgeable and helpful.  

Best of luck!
