Hello,I am an out of state real estate investor coming to Atlanta on the last week of July, would love to hang out with other investors - if you know any RE meetings I can join, please let me know.Much appreciated! 

If you want to learn about the local market and plan on being there for some time I would join a RE team to understand the geographical nuances of the area and also introduce yourself to the community.

So again, my only concern with Lifestyles is that it has a draw to many newbies, but most newbies are not your father, they are guys wanting to do deals themselves with likely no real estate experience prior to joining Lifestyles.  

I've joined Richmond RING and will absolutely look into the others you mentioned.

Very excited to join this thriving community! 

If anyone on here is interested in joining a Hotel discussion forum please pm me your email and contact details and I will add you to the Webex conference call we are setting up for next week- cheers

I was an early adopter, joined in 2015, but since then have seen it go down hill.  

@Kearsten M Higgs seems an option here  https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/517/topics/1186880-join...

I joined Last year when the market was not great, and all investors stopped investing and I stated invested after learning techniques and underwriting.

Would love to join any discussions in Tokyo going fwd.
