There are people at a breakfast Meetup in Akron, a guy at the Akron REIA who advertises there and a commercial broker in the CLE area.

We plan to begin our investing in Cleveland, but are open to exploring elsewhere.About 6 months ago, my father, brother and I were having breakfast and I started kicking around the idea of splitting a vacation home. 

If the business or rental space was physically part of the living area of your home, such as a spare room used as a bed-and-breakfast bedroom or attic space used as a home office, your business usage doesn’t affect your gain/loss calculations.

Signed the papers right there on my girlfriends breakfast bar.

When you ask a question, the leader encourages you to go to the breakfast meetings where everyone experienced should meet and discuss things.

You can market to people with retirement accounts (IRA, 401k, etc), advertise in publications (be careful on your wording here as you do not want to violate any SEC rules), and you can hold small meetings or even one on one presentations either in your home or for a breakfast/lunch meeting.

Hello all, this is how i spend my days(Phase 1 get my mind right)- Pray- Meditate - Exercise & go Jogging - Take a warm shower (while listening to relaxing music)- Eat a good breakfast(Phase 2 take care of business)- Check and respond to both my email and voicemail messages- Check to-do list, and complete any items due that day- Scan through that days top real estate news articles- Do a little networking through various real estate groups & forums (mainly for: education, finding deals, and building my connections) - Do at least one thing that day that normally makes me feel uneasy (I work on conquering my fears by doing them) (Phase 3 relax)- after all this, I put anything new on my to-do list to complete for the next day, then I either read a book, hang out with friends, watch a movie, or play video games.

Funny Note: Me and a group of friends went out to breakfast one morning.

You can have (depending on what zoning allows), bed and breakfasts, equine facilities, up close and personal with animals, you pick em fields (tomatoes, strawberries, etc.), as mentioned CSAs, produce stands with all sorts of local grown and produced products (esp. as the "eat local" movement grows even larger), and so on and so on and so on.

I scheduled a breakfast meeting with them the next day and went home.
