Hi all -I am just starting out in REI and was wondering if any experienced RE investors in the Rochester, NY area would like to meet up for coffee, lunch or drinks.

I also sometimes stay after the meeting for drinks and more talking/networking.Also, my REIA has several meetings a month: the general meeting (where the speaker usually comes), more specific meetings like an IRA one, women's meeting, landlord meeting, etc.

From my experience the primary source of lead in drinking water is the lead service line from the main to the houses in the old areas of town.

Also, some people say, you will have a higher likeliness of negative tenant behavior like drug/alcohol abuse and less than desirable guests(eg. son/husband just got of prison or in a gang, or daughters BF is same).

I'm also surprised the boat uses propane for heat & cooking - usually boats use alcohol.  

Or that the space ship is following hail-Bop comet and we all gotta get some Nikes, cut our nuggets off and drink the kool-aid to catch a ride? 

Usually dont mess with them unless there's at least $30k profit (after money costs and all fees).Only I'm pretty far from bored...I kinda like taking summers off, drinking a lot, and taking lots of trips...I'm over 6 figures on 2 flips so far this year, working on my third that should net $25k after the termites I found ($88k purchase, $52k rehab (new budget), list at $200k, prob get a check for $25-$30 after money costs, realtor fees, closing costs, etc.).

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink it"Ultimately, each attendee is responsible for their own follow-through at that point.If they don't, at least they only spent less than $100 rather than tens of thousands on guru crap.Thank you for your contrarian opinions.

Hopefully one day we can drink a beer.

@Joe, thanks and I will def be in touch when I'm in the market for another deal or to buy you a drink/coffee to pick your brain about RE investing in general. ;)
