Why do you ask? If you have a wholesale deal send it my way :). 

If you're looking to connect with investors, I run a meet up called Pints & Properties. It's at Gulf Coast Brewery and the next one is on 6/26 at 1pm.

 Yah! Come hang out at P&P as well. Mike and I are trying to build an awesome community of investors. I’m out of the country for the next week, but we can connect when I get back.

Depends on the area around the base. It’s hit or miss. I’ve sold a few around there recently and amazed at the price increases, even on wholesale deals.

Also, if you’re looking to target military renters, hopefully your agent will give some honest brokering on if properties are suitable or not. There’s a lot that are not.

Good luck.

The meetup was designed to build a community of like-minded people, motivated to crush it in real estate. We collaborate over beers, share knowledge, and network with those on a similar path, while expanding our knowledge base together. Not stuffy, zero sales pitch, and good vibes only.

Where: Gulf Coast Brewery, 500 E Heinberg St, Pensacola, FL 32502
When: May 15, 2022 @ 1pm
Who: Mike Hamby; Hamby Housing, LLC
What: How to Analyze Homes and Estimate Repairs for Fix-n-Flip Opportunities

This month we will be hosting Mike Hamby. He is the owner of Hamby Housing LLC started investing 6 years ago in Ohio. Mike quit his IT job after reading "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," and then became a real estate agent strictly working with investors. He bought a Homevestor franchise 4 years ago that allowed him to become a full-time investor. He moved to Pensacola 1.5 years ago. Now he continues to be a full time investor mostly flipping Single family houses. He is also a licensed real estate agent that he uses to list his own houses and has 3 members on his team. He has flipped over 50 properties himself and sold over 90 properties for other clients and is starting to focus on building a rental portfolio.

Mike will be discussing how to analyze properties and rehab costs for fix and flip opportunities.

@Michael Hamby is correct. Best benefits come from paying yourself a salary out of your S Corp. That’s how I do it for the real estate business as well.

 I'll text you. I may have a couple guys that will work for you.

 Looking forward to it. We will have a quick presentation at this one. My guest speaker bailed on me last minute so I am going to give some good market updates and insight into both local/national market metrics and we are going to do some member introductions and deal analysis.

I am an agent in the area and I work with wholesalers a lot. I'm also interested in trying to get some off-market deals myself. Would love to see if we could be of value to each other. No sales pitch--I know you don't need an agent, but I'd like to connect!

Also, I run a different meet up than the one I think you went to. I'd love to have you guys attend! Shoot me a message.

Come to Pints and Properties 4/24 and hang out!
