Here is a link to the details for our next Midwest REI Meetup. It is a great place to learn and network with out investors in the Peoria area. https://forms.gle/dKjMXQ4r4jXMbQBF7

Welcome to the January Midwest Real Estate Investor Meetup in Peoria. For those of you returning, we're so glad you enjoyed the previous meetups and we look forward to seeing you again.

For those of you that are new around here... Mike Gudat and Brad Stegall of Acceleration Ventures welcome you! They both started investing in their early 20's by house hacking duplexes. Mike has been involved with the acquisition or sale of over 1,000 units. Brad and Mike currently control over 475 residential units in and around Peoria and over $8M in commercial real estate. They are also underway with a vacation rental development in San Pedro, Belize.

For January we will be diving into Deal Deep Dives with 4 different members of Midwest REI. We will get insight into how our members are making things happen and what kind of properties they are buying. Are our members holding for long term or selling? Most importantly, what lessons were learned along the way. Come to learn and be ready with some good questions!

We will still allow plenty of time for networking at the beginning and the end of the meetup. Remember our mission: We want to help investors get started. We want to help connect people to find deals. We want to teach people about creative financing. We want to help everyone win big with real estate investing. We will plan to meet on the second Tuesday of every month.

Lunch will be served during the meeting and you will pay Warehouse on State directly.

Event Date/Time: Tuesday, January 9th, 2024 from 11:45am to 1:00pm (lunch served)
Event Address: Warehouse on State | 736 SW Washington St., Peoria IL 61602

 What is the address?  

We are raising money to start a project down there right now.  We will be on street 1 of phase 2.  One of our partners has done 3 other deals down there so far.  Feel free to reach out!

Did anyone end up investing in Belize?  We are currently working on a project down there at Mahogany Bay.

What did you end up doing with the property in Belize??

@Peter Tomeczko We would love to have you.  Feel free to give me a call if you want to discuss logistics of what we have been able to do.  

I started Midwest REI | Peoria. Join the group on Facebook. That would be a good place to start.

I would be happy to discuss some property management options.   Feel free to give me a call.  309-208-8669.  Thank you!

Welcome to the March Midwest Real Estate Investor Meetup in Peoria. For those of you returning, we're so glad you enjoyed the previous meetups and we look forward to seeing you again.

For those of you that are new around here... Mike Gudat and Brad Stegall of Acceleration Ventures welcome you! They both started investing in their early 20's by house hacking duplexes. Mike has been involved with the acquisition or sale of over 1,000 units. Brad and Mike currently control over 350 residential units in and around Peoria and have just added over $8M in commercial real estate to their portfolio.
For the March Meetup, we are pleased to welcome Reid Bennett to Peoria! Reid serves as National Council Chair of Multifamily Properties for SVN International and Senior Vice President for SVN Chicago Commercial. As a licensed managing broker, he focuses primarily on the sale of apartment communities across the Midwest but also teams up with members of his council to serve clients across the country in over 150 markets. He was involved in the sale and/or purchase of 1600+ units in 2022 (420 units in/near Peoria over past two years). It's safe to say that he knows a thing or two about multifamily! We're excited for Reid to deliver "The State of Multifamily", not only locally... but regionally and nationally as well!

We will still allow plenty of time for networking at the beginning and the end of the meetup. Remember our mission: We want to help investors get started. We want to help connect people to find deals. We want to teach people about creative financing. We want to help everyone win big with real estate investing. We will plan to meet on the second Tuesday of every month.

Lunch will be served during the meeting and you will pay Warehouse on State directly ($15.00).

Event Date/Time: Tuesday, March 14th, 2023 from 11:45am to 1:00pm (lunch served)
