@Jenny CunninghamCount me in!

Nevermind, @Ryan Landis, I found it!

@Ryan LandisDo you happen to have a link to, or info about the meetup in Milpitas? I searched, but couldn't find it on the meetup website. I found ones in SF and San Jose only. 

@Sergey TkachevThanks for the nudge. I'm trying to see if I can swing it. 

@J. Martin@Al WilliamsonThanks so much for letting me know. I'm sure I would learn a ton and be inspired, but it probably makes more sense if I attend a few regular local meetups instead, as they arise, and start working on deals before considering something like this. 

Would this be appropriate for an extremely new investor who knows hardly anything or is this for more experienced investors? My husband was going to be out of town on business, but his trip got cancelled so I might be able to attend if fitting. 

Count me in. I've researched investing in the past, but have just stared up again and would love to start learning from others in a small group so my husband and I can move past research and into actually owning investment property. My email should be in my profile, but if it doesn't show up for some reason let me know. 

Welcome to BP, from a fellow newbie. 

@Stan K. Thanks for letting me know about the meetup. Obviously didn't make it tonight, but it looks like it's a monthly thing so maybe I'll make it to the next one. Looks like it gets a good crowd. 

Thanks @Chris M. and @Marlon Wilson

Hi everyone. I live in the East Bay - Oakland, CA. I just happened upon BP a few days ago when starting to research real estate investing. I did some research years ago, but didn't follow through with it. However, my husband and I would like to get serious about it. 

At this stage we are just doing a lot of learning, but would love to start meeting local investors in the area. If anyone can suggest local real estate investor meetups that are good for beginners that would be great. Names of potential local mentors would be great too. 

We also want to start researching professionals to put a team together so if anyone can suggest investor-friendly realtors and mortgage brokers to contact as well as anyone else you recommend (such as financial advisers/accountants, lawyers, etc.) that would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to reading as many posts as I can and listening to the podcasts so we can start to formulate what our goals are. 

We've owned our primary home for 4 years (purchased on 2012) and at the moment we're not sure if we want to invest further locally or out of state. 

Look forward to learning much from you all.

Thanks!
