The closest things to masshousing are home ready and home possible, but income limits hit you again. 

The closest REIA is probably in Pittsburgh.

My favorite is the Black Diamond meeting in Waltham (alternates every other month with their Worcester location, next Waltham meeting is in July, also I'm in West Newton as well and it is BY FAR the closest one to us as well).

Why not make a few thousand bucks on the side by helping your closest friends or family members?

With Find members you can which BP members are closest to you within given mile radius.

There is the NHREIA in Manchester as the closest one I know of.  

I think the closest I have seen so far is this company New Western Acquisitions and a few other companies like it, and even then, their ARV numbers in general are hard to comp. 

Yes I have been thinking of buying and renting in Vegas as it's the closest out of State city that may be considered.  

If you're interested in meeting more local investors the Southern CTReia is great, there is an even better group that meets Wednesday in Fairfield, and then CT Reia is probably the closest for you, they meet in Meriden.

The closest meetings I have found were in the Sacramento area.
