9:35 am: Monthly Kick-Off Remarks

9:45 am: Have's & Want's = We open the mic for any of our members to share a Note or opportunity they have to share. Or maybe you're looking for a mentor or JV. Now is your chance to share.

10:00 am-ish: 1st Topic = Starting and Running an Airbnb. We network and discuss.

10:20 am: 2nd Topic = Generating Leads. We network and discuss.

10:40 am: 3rd Topic = Using Airtable to track your deals, leads, progress, service providers, and other elements of your execution.

Meetup Details

The Meetup was started to share value with others interested or seasoned with real estate investing.

We welcome you to come network and share your Haves & Wants and Problems & Solutions. We will have a very diverse crowd so show up ready to make deals and share value with others in real estate investing.

The meetup offers value for new and experienced investors alike.

**Cost:**

No admission cost. There will be coffee and tea available for purchase from Pizzanista! and we will be providing some baked goods at no cost.

Please be respectful, as this establishment is owned by one of our friends and they have graciously opened for our Meetups to be more private and helpful.

Please Do Your Due Diligence Disclaimer

We recommend to always do your due diligence on those you may want to work with. We have created this Meetup to share knowledge and opportunities, we are not CPAs or Lawyers and as such use your best judgment and look into the background of those you are considering working with.
