Not necessarily hard times, but more commonly life events.

In one particular meeting I attended Jimmy Napier goes up after John Beck and rather than make his own presentation offers to clarify questions concerning John Becks presentation.  

@John Vitta @Khaled Morad  I created an event in the BiggerPockets events section for our event next Sat, Feb 26th.  

@Declan KasterOur podcast and books and events allowed us to become thought leaders in multifamily and brokers started sending us deals.

I work for a DC-based fractional investment startup and would love to connect with potential investors at events to discuss our company and offering!

I was surprised at the number of events here that bring in people from out of town which is why I’m curious about it. 

You can meet local investors by registering to attend real estate events in your area: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-events-and-happenings6.

However, if you're using a fintech app that isn't a bank itself, your deposits may not be covered by such insurance schemes, leaving you vulnerable in the event of insolvency or other financial crises.3.

A great way to network and meet people in your local community is to attend in person meet ups.

Have you attended any local RE meet-ups?
