@Trice Antinoro

I don't think this is a big deal. Just do it alone and if she comes on board great, if not that's fine too.

@Robert Shedden it is the second Wednesday of the month. I took the club over about 3 years ago and have changed it up a bit. Did you go when it was at crash-1?

@Corina Eufinger

I have found in Rockford, it is pretty landlord friendly. Evictions only take about a month from start to finish if you're on the ball and give your notice has right away. As for working with the city oh, I have found him to be very reasonable. I don't always agree with them, however we usually work things out.

@Robert Shedden

I suggest you join us at the Rockford real estate investors association. This is not your typical investors meeting. We don't bring in speakers who try and sell you high-priced books and seminars. It really is a group of people who are active investors along with people starting out.

Hello,

I just wanted to let you all know about our local meeting.

We are a group of real estate investors in the Rockford area. Our purpose is to provide an open forum where both experienced and novice investors can ask questions, offer advice and learn from each other. In addition, we provide education, motivation and networking opportunities, without the heavy sales pitch.

If you are an experienced investor or just exploring real estate investing, you will want to attend one of our meeting. You will not be disappointed. Many of our members have decades of real estate experience and are willing to share their knowledge with you.

We meet the second Wednesday of the month at 6:00 PM. www.Rockfordreia.com or check us out on meetup.

Tim
