The 41st Santa Barbara Real Estate Investor Meetup will take place at Third Window Brewing Co. on Thursday, December 19th from 6-8pm. We will be in the front patio area across from the bar. Look for the sign similar to the above banner and call/text me (Baird) at 805-705-5667 or Val at 805-215-6733 if you are having trouble finding the group.

We are a group of real estate investors of all experience levels who get together each month to share stories, experiences, leads, etc. Whether you have only started dreaming of your first property, or just closed on your 100th; whether you invest out of state, or keep it local, we look forward to having you join.

We kick the evening off with quick group introductions, so be ready to tell the group one thing you are seeking and one area where you can provide value (everyone has something to give).

Hey Baird, 

Thanks for reaching out.  Excited to here this is a local group here in SB!  
Right now, I am still in learning mode to be honest.  Not totally sure where will be the best options for us to invest in.   I am open to local, admittedly intimidated by the price tags, and also open to markets outside SB or even CA.  

I will reach out about the local meet ups. 

Thanks!

Sounds great Nate. Yes price tags are intimidating around here and the market can be tough. That said, there are huge benefits if you commit to it and get creative. My wife and I invest locally and have had great experiences. There are a lot of other great markets out there too, so you’ve got plenty of options. We have investors with all sorts of backgrounds at our meetup, and all love to talk about their strategies. I’ll forward you the info for tomorrow and hope to see you there.

Hi, 

I am excited to be Jumping back in here and dive into REI and connect with other members here. My wife and I live in Santa Barbara, CA and love spending time outside in this beautiful city.

Hi Nate! Welcome to the BP community! Always great to see fellow SB folks. Curious if you are looking to invest locally or in other markets? 

I run the local meetup. Our next event is this Thursday and would be fun to have you join if you can. There is an event page for it here on BP if you search 93101. If you’re interested in being on the list for future meetup notifications, send me a DM with your email. We have a great group!

Daniel and @Alan Siebenaler, have you two met? If not, you should.  Maybe this Thursday 8/15 at the meetup ;-)?

Quote from @Baird King:

Hi Lindsey - I am also in SB and host the local meetup. Investing in SB is challenging, but it certainly can payoff massively if done right. Just takes creativity and persistence.  I am always excited to meet others who as excited about making it work as I am.  Would love to have you join the meetup if you are interested. We have a great group of people, including a few of the others who have already responded to this thread.  The next meetup is this Thursday (8/15).  Ill be posting the info right after I send this reply, so look for it under Events. Also DM me your email if you would like to be included on future notifications.  Either way, I am always interested in talking real estate with other investors, especially locals.  Hope to see you soon.
