Chicago Area Meet-ups
Hi all!
I'm looking for Chicago area meet-ups. Anyone know of any that a future investor like myself can join??
A little about me...My husband and I plan to purchase our first property in the next 6 months. Looking for a buy and hold. Our goal is to secure properties (amount tbd) to help supplement our retirement. Which is about 20-30 years away. 😉
Thanks in advance for any insights! Also if you know a better place for me to post this topic please feel free to share that also!
Thx!
JB

@Jahaan Blake this is a great place to ask!!! We just had a big event(about 25 people) last week in Lincoln Park that was great. There’s a link named “events” on the website you can use and then join any of interest.
Best of luck with everything!!!
