Driving the streets, talking to locals, eating/sitting at a local cafe, and personally getting a feel for the different areas will allow you to understand those dynamics and therefore allow you have an edge over other "out-of-state" investors that just rely on those reports and long-distance phone conversations.

Where I bought so far, there will be upscale shops, cafés and restaurants.

I will only be there for 36 hours so I'm trying to make the most of it.If you're free Friday night, I'm going to have dinner at Bricktown Brewery at 3301 S Peoria Ave, Tulsa, OK 74105If you're free Saturday morning, i'll be having breakfast at the Old School Bagel Cafe at 6805 S Yale Ave, Tulsa, OK 74136Anyone interested in some networking this weekend?

Thx @Jacob Kravitz for the info, and the reminder about CA fees.

I usually get in town at around 4PM to beat the rush hour traffic and I grab a coffee and beignets at Cafe Du Monde on Veterans. 

Ate at the Coffee Shop Cafe a couple of times and had to have a cupcake from Cuppiecakes.

We did meet at the Texican Cafe- it's nice to hear from you as well!

It's usually second Saturday of the month at UnUrban Cafe in Santa Monica.

Last year, there were alot of ground-breaking ceremonies (1: mix use development, 2- hardrock cafe with lofts, and 3- a park) happening in the neighborhood and that's when we saw our prop values jump almost 50%. and about 30% spike from last year.

Join us September 24 at MiMi's cafe at the St.Johns Town Center to connect with like-minded people in the multifamily space.We are grateful to have Gino Barbaro, of Jake and Gino, to be our speaker at our meetup on September 24.
