Des Moines, IA - Newbie Introduction

[Chris Goehring]

Hello! I wanted to introduce myself to the Des Moines area crowd. My name is Chris Goehring, and I'm getting into real estate more each week. I wish I had started here with Bigger Pockets first, because it would've made the learning curve a lot smoother. I started with a JV, and would like to get into more assets with cash-flow like rentals, multi-family rentals. To go with my JV, I'm always open to working with others and getting creative to move a deal. My biggest unknown is not really knowing a lot of people who specialize in this space (i.e. attorneys, CPAs, general contractors), but asking around is how I got into my first JV.

I would love to hear how others in the area are doing, what's your outlook, and have discussions on how we can help each other. Is there a regular REIA meeting I can attend?
