Would anyone be interested in getting together for a happy hour over the summer? As the city starts to open back up I would love to connect (safely of course) with some other real estate obsessed folks in the area. I'm moved to Winston Salem last fall and didn't commit to REI until a couple of months back.
I've never been to a "meet up" and don't know anybody in this market outside of my realtor and property manager. I know some can be really "salesy". But I just wanted to meet some good people over a good beer.

Hey Alex, I would definitely be interested in a happy hour. I'm local to Winston and am early in my REI journey/career also. Would love to connect, especially with like-minded, local investors. Hope we can make this happen!
@Ahmed Iqbal currently talking with Saunders Property Management. They were recommended to me by several people including my realtor. They are based here in Winston and have been incredibly helpful so far, especially considering I'm not a client yet.
Sounds like we could get a solid little group together. Maybe we shoot for something in July.

Sorry I dropped the ball on the follow up here. My full-time gig gets crazy at the end of the fiscal year. Maybe we can shoot for sometime in mid-July? We could meet at Incendiary since its outside and has beer and/or food within easy reach.
I'm out of town the next couple of weeks, but certainly don't feel like you have to wait for me if something sooner works. Hopefully over that time the recent surge here can get controlled and reversed, that way everyone would feel more comfortable.

Did you guys ever lock in a date and time? Also interested in a meet. I am in the Burlington area but Winston is not that far. Hoping I am not too late finding this thread?

Looking forward to it and meeting everyone who can make it. If anyone has any questions just shoot me a message. I should be easy to spot, just look for the tall sunburnt ginger.
Off to the beach see you all in a couple of weeks.

Hey Everyone -
Hope it's been a good couple of weeks for you. I just wanted to jumpstart this idea again. Is anyone still interested in meeting up tonight at Incendiary at 6pm for a beer.
I'm open to connecting even if its a really small group. But given the public health situation I totally understand if everyone felt more comfortable pushing this back.
Let me know what you think and look forward to meeting folks soon.
