Post: Wailuku Side Meet UP

Aloha!

It's time for the second meeting of the fledgling Maui REIA. This time I was thinking we could meet somewhere they have food. 808 on Main in Wailuku is the spot, the food is terrific and we can have separate area. I just need a head count by 5pm on Wednesday. Let me know if you will be attending and how many people you plan on bringing with you.

We will network, discuss deals available, discuss vetting deals and vendors, and share what we have learned since the last meet up.

Hope to see you there!

@Steve Rozenberg I will be joining NARPM after the first of the month.  Thanks for the feedback.

I'm a new RE agent in Maui focusing on long term residential leasing, fancy talk for property management.  I'm fortunate to work with a very reputable broker and have the opportunity to shadow and partner with a couple very experienced agents.  They have been very helpful and informative from their perspective.

What I'm looking for is guidance from the BiggerPockets community.  What do you as investor want from your property manager?  How do you want to be approached/ solicited by a property manager? When you are shopping for this service where to you look for a qualified agent?  Do you have experience with AppFolio, thoughts on that product? etc, etc.....

The BiggerPockets community has been helpful and inspiring for me as I transitioned completely into RE.  Thank you all!

@Scott Watanabe did you have any luck with these suggestions?

No stress Len, 

We were talking about meeting again next week in Lahaina.  Then I am looking to another the 23rd in Kahului or Wailuku.

I'm looking for to meeting everyone tonight, as of right now we should have between 4-7 people.  I will be bringing information for one other property that we can run through the calculators.  I don't expect either to be viable options, but a good learning experience to look for holes and what it would take.  

If anyone has trouble finding the place, call me at 808-463-9452 and I can get you there.  

I have noticed a couple postings where other meet ups are playing Cashflow. I have Cashflow 101 if anyone is interested in playing.

Aloha Everyone, 

I have a listing at 176 Ahaaina Pl in Kihei, that we could meet at tomorrow 6pm.  It is my intention for us to network and discuss investing in Maui, not try to sell anyone this unit.  I was thinking we could work this property through the BP calculators as a group to refine and learn how to assess an investment property.  Ideas?

I think we will be adding a West Side meeting very soon.  Possibly first of next month?

@Alma De Santis

I'm thinking every 2nd and 4th Thursday about 6pm, one South Kihei/ Wailea and Maybe one Kahului/ Wailuku.  What do you think?

@Christian,

I did my license class through Carol Ball online.  It took about 2 months working on it 30-40 minutes 3-4 days a week in my free time. I'd love to hear about your time in Portland.  Let's get together when you back.
