REI Meetings and Clubs
I am a new REI. l would like to know where are all the REI meetings and clubs. I live in kansas city, ks and do not mind traveling. I need to network with experienced wholesalers and other investors, so that l can start finding and closing deals. Does anyone has any advice of how l should go about it lawfully step by step? I have read alot of material and talked to a few other investors. But l am a bit confused about how to get out there and do it with the proper forms and steps. I would love all the advice from all the experience kansas and missouri Wholesalers and other investors.

Hi @Derrick Lasley -
Here is a group you might check out: Mid-America Association of Real Estate Investors. http://www.marei.org/
I believe they have a meeting tonight, actually. I can't go because of a conflict. I haven't been able to attend this group yet, but am looking forward to it. I'm planning to attend their January meeting. It is a membership organization, but you can attend your first meeting for free.
