Hey folks, we are postponing the PIG meeting to next Tuesday, September 18th. Our meeting location will be closed tonight in preparation for hurricane Florence. Sorry for any inconvenience!

Got you both down! See you on Tuesday night!

We will be meeting in the rooftop lounge of the ICON building in downtown Norfolk. To attend, simply RSVP to this event to facilitate access to the building! A guest list will be compiled to allow easy access through the building's lobby and elevators. If this is your first meeting with The Professional Investor's Guild, entry is free! After that we ask that you sign up for a membership with the guild. The cost is $27/month. That will give you access to the past 12 recorded meetings, all future meetings, and a private Facebook group to network with PIG members around the country. You will also receive exclusive access to a monthly Q&A teleconference with the Founder of the P.I.G., Matt Robinson. All guild members receive unlimited "deal review," a comprehensive analysis of any deal that they are considering for purchase or investment.

Hey Folks!

I'm a wholesaler moving to Norfolk from Pensacola, FL. I am looking to connect with investors/rehabbers/landlords in the area! What areas do you like to invest in? What kinds of properties fit your criteria? From the research I have done, the hottest areas are 23451, 23434, 23455, & 23462 - does that check out with what's going on in the market?

Gents,

I am a wholesaler in the area, feel free to send me your email/number if you would like to be added to my cash buyers list!

@Matthew Olszak Good point. I think the idea is that you can only reduce your expenditures so much but there's no limit to how much you can increase your assets and income. Renting gives you much more mobility and less headache which in turn allows you to pursue more assets. Just my opinion on things.

Rich Dad Poor Dad 101...buy assets not liabilities. A house is a liability unless it pays you. You want cash flow while you wait for real estate to appreciate. The rich use their assets to pay for expenditures (rent). The poor and middle class use their income to pay for their expenditures. (paying for a mortgage with your paycheck) Grant Cardone is right, own a bunch of doors and use a tiny fraction of the cash flow to pay for your rent (expenditure). I can't remember which show from Grant Cardone it was but he pretty much said that buying a house is like paying for groceries for the rest of your life. Renting costs more but gives you the ability to be nimble and free.

I would also recommend checking out the Professional Investor's Guild (P.I.G.)

Several military investors meet there along with many local investors. It's an excellent resource for networking, education, and partnerships. We meet the second Tuesday of every month at the Pensacola Bay Center.
