@Michael H.

What areas of Dayton & Xenia? I grew up in Springfield and am actively looking into the Central OH markets (income property SFH).

Any input would be awesome.

No dues, no membership. It's free.

I can't make the meeting in December - let me know how it goes!

@Rancliffe Conyers

Welcome!

I agree with @Joe Fairless - supplementing your direct mail efforts with networking (local REIAs, investor groups, agents) and letting everyone you know (and don't know) that you're actively looking for a deal to purchase in the next 8 weeks will help, too.

Let us know how it goes.

Best of luck.

Welcome to BP, @Kevin Hunter

Smart for working in 10% PM, just in case. Sharing your experience about property management companies will help other investors on this site...it's a common area of concern.

Hope to hear more about your journey.

Welcome to BP, @Lawana Anderson

@Robert Haworth

Let me know how the seller financing piece works for you.

I've grown increasingly interested in notes recently, trying to learn everything I can.

Congrats on your finished rehab.

Also, I've attended one of the Traction REIA Saturday events (Michael Blank, Multifamily) and found it to be full of valuable content. Michael is the real deal and he brought a lot of local experience to the table.

That said, I'm sure it depends on the speaker.

I would definitely consider additional workshops in the future, however, in regards to the monthly meetings...I really like Tom & Carolina personally, but the meetings can be very sales-y.

@Travis Geary

Hi Travis. I can vouch for CAZA Meetup. Rob & Mark are awesome. Every time I go I learn something new and there are NO sales pitches. Just content & networking.

Quality group of people.

They meet at the Reston KW office (although it's not a KW thing), 1st Tuesday of the month.

@Matthew Yrungaray

I'm just now reading this thread...did you end up purchasing the property?

Hi BPers.

Does anyone invest in Springfield, Ohio?

It's my hometown. I am looking into the market there (full circle moment, I suppose) & hoping to connect with others who are active in the area.

Cheers,

Jessica
