Hi! I am new to real estate investing; currently my husband and I have one long-term rental property and just signed up another (closing in June). Hoping to learn all the things and connect with others! Thank you for setting this up, I will be there. 


 Excellent! Looking forward to hearing about your deals and the process it takes to get there.

Quote from @Jacob Carroll:

Looking forward to attending, thanks much for organizing! Hoping to meet some additional investors and hear about their recent experiences finding deals and growing their portfolios. Interested in the group’s near and medium-term outlook with rising interest rates and whether there will be softening in the local market. Cheers! -Jake


 Excited to meet you

Hello All, 

We are meeting up again to talk about real estate and hopefully make some deals together. I'll have a very unique sign that says "BP Meet Up" on our table. All are welcome. 

Last meet up we learned a great deal about SFH and connecting buyers with sellers from @Ray Mulli and his business partner. Also a lot of really creative financing ideas and how to leverage making a higher offer to work in your favor. It was some great real world advice for buying real estate I had never heard before - and I've listened to hundreds of the BP podcasts. 

@Andrew Agosto spoke on some very interesting rehab investment projects. His engineering background and advice could help some new investors get over the fear of some minor structural issues in possible properties. 

I told of a deal gone sideways where the seller filled a vacant unit of a duplex after we had signed out purchase agreement and the carnage that followed. 

Anyways, I don't think an itinerary is really needed as the topics and conversations just organically came out last time. But here are some ideas I like if anybody would like to attend and contribute: 


How to find deals in a hot market. 

How to land a deal with OPM (other people's money)

How to find the best neighborhoods for rentals in the metro

What is the first step to become an investor? 

If you can speak to those or any other real estate topics we would love for you to come and hear your story. 


I'm looking forward to seeing you all!

~Davis~

@James Hamling IF we can find a way to put a deal together, I’ll buy. Otherwise there are unlimited drink tokens available from the bar.

 No worries. The plan is to make this a recurring event. So if not this one, we will see you at the next.
