Hey @Anne Christensen - Having been on both sides of real estate meetups (attending and hosting), I can tell you they're absolutely worth your time if you pick the right ones. 

From the hosting side it is a 20 min turnover and there are no parties with just 2 guests. 

Hi there, I host meet ups that are quite well attended, if I can humbly say.

I host a podcast where I break down all of the investment zip codes in Memphis based on my personal investment experience and pricing numbers from Chandler Reports.

We specialize in helping hosts like you connect with traveling professionals who need furnished accommodations.Our platform is designed to simplify the process, making it easy for you to list your property and reach potential renters.

If you love hospitality and hosting, maybe the Short-term or mid-term route is for you.

Any host meet up?

I would still value an attorney's opinion above that of some know-it-all podcast host.

Or what the host receives?
