If you need a venue, I do have a candidate albeit in the western suburbs.

My point was 2014 was an incredible year for other venues instead of buy and hold...

at the Fox & Hound on 11470 Westheimer Road from 7-10pm(RSVP through Eventbrite) November 10 "Century 21 Networking Events for Real Estate Agents" at the BBVA Compass Stadium from 6-9pm(RSVP through REIA Houston Website) November 15 "Houston REIA - November Topic: Wholesaling for Beginner Real Estate Investors" at the Double Tree at 6 Greenway Plaza (venue changed, typically its the Hilton on Post Oakon the third Tuesday of the month) from 6-9:30pmLooking forward to hearing from everyone on here.

Perhaps as a venue space though if zoning allows I'll do the research.

send me a PM with your direct e mail want to send it to my GC in Charleston we have 10 plus new constructions going and can always use good sub tradesmen... as OP stated sub trades are tough in ALL venues these days.

We met at the One Realty office on "I" Street, but I don't know if the venue will change for future events.

Our initial thoughts was to update some of the property to have more amenities to add to the guest experience and to offer it as a wedding venue.

Whether they simply can't afford to hold on to that house any longer, or don't have the time to keep waiting around for their fantasy offer, these sellers might be more willing to take a "lowball" offer just to get a done deal.Other venues include FSBO's, auctions, private sales from other investors (network!)

I am around wedding venues, wineries, hiking trails, mountains, etc.

That takes an experienced veteran who knows exactly how to operate in that venue.
