Between the two of you, you should have 10+ total people at the meeting The meeting can be structured as follows: - Introductions (everyone does an intro saying their investing background and what they want to learn about wholesaling) - Speaker speaks - You ask group what topic the next meeting should be on.

Networking is everything.You will learn something whether from a speaker or someone attending.Paul

Reia has a monthly "Guru Speaker."

Lots of guru speakers hawking their wares, but also very good attendance and some real-deal investors and a variety of people in the business.Best of luck!

I just had a long discussion this weekend with Brandon Turner and Michele Fischer (an upcoming featured speaker on BP) about investing in Washington state.  

Just a heads up.I will be the speaker at the October NEREIA event on buying your first multi to live in. 

Also if you want to get into multi family then you will want to check out the NEREIA in Chelmsford in October as @Ann Bellamy (who is also one of the hosts of the Black Diamond meeting I mentioned) will be one of the speakers discussing strategies for buying and financing owner occupied multi family properties (might be a little off on the specifics but that is the jist of it). 

There are always knowledgeable speakers there.  

The open forum and speakers at the SM event were solid.

All groups that grow need to do some type of sales as the cost of the facilities for a larger group can be substantial  Also sometimes a particular speaker will be very salesy but that is not necessarily the general vibe of the group.
