Looking to network in Gainesville , FL
Hello BiggerPocketers!
My husband and I recently moved back to our hometown of Gainesville, FL, and we are looking to connect and network with other investors in the Gator Nation!
Thank you in advance,
Karina & Nick Woodward

Hi Karina, I talked with your husband Nick a few months back. He mentioned you two are good friends with Tony Boyette.
So far, there are at least two investor groups I'm aware of. I typically round up one group every 2 to 4 weeks. I also am told there is a group that meets at least once a month out in nearby Newberry.
We typically discuss market trends, off market properties, exchange recommendations on dependable handymen, rehab crews, etc.
We've had a few guest speakers come through as well to touch on different related topics. We try to alternate between a formal meeting & a more laid back meeting (for laid back we just meet at World of Beer or somewhere like that)
I'll tag some local investors that I'm sure would welcome you..
