starting my own REI club in my town????

[Barbara Long]

Any suggestions that may be helpful to get one started..........so I can get this darn whole sale off  to a start and get some of my money back from the FLIP or FLOP class I took! LOL!!

Hi Barbara, I just started one here in San Antonio via the Real Estate Events and Happenings forum, and would say just post it here. Find a place and coordinate as appropriate, include your city/state in the title, then fill in the details in the announcement. I think we get tied up in the "REIA" mindset and forget that normal investors like to just sit down and chat about their interests. Have some snacks and beverages on hand and just see who shows up. It may be 2 people, it may be 20, but I did more networking face to face with the 15 people who showed up at mine than I did at the local REIA the times that I went. Have fun with it, get it out there so people know about it, and go from there. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!
