Not only will this take me away from my family again, it takes me away from all the networking I have been able to do since last July as well as most likely missing the meetups that I started with Tom.

Great place to learn and network.

I haven't been to one but from what I've heard, it's great for networking.

@Brian Listy I am expecting it to be at least a little bit of sales, but hopefully it will turn out to be a great networking opportunity!

@John Weidner and @Ryan Steele ...Do you recommend any local networking groups?

So you are in a good company.Some say that your net-worth equals your network, and this is the place to make right connections.

Hoping to get started networking with the PNW folks already on here and then share some of the craft brews I've been hearing about when we get there.

Fundamentally, finding these is like finding real property deals, you just have to pick some networks and vendors and go at it.

Through my networking over the last year with, investors, property managers, and brokers I stumbled on a good Regional Bank that is able to help.

There is a meeting on Thursdays at Big Daddy's around noon if you want to try networking with some local folks.
