It's a monthly REI networking meetup at Red Stick Social on Government in midcity.

This has probably been the one thing that has helped me scale my portfolio so much and so quickly within the past 6 years.So the things that I would bring to the table that a new investor wouldn’t have access to (at least at the beginning until they build their own systems and networks) would be my knowledge and streamlining of getting financing, having deal flow, using vetted and skilled subcontractors, discounted prices on materials, systems in place to find tenant buyers, and streamlined refinancing and management in placeIt is similar to turnkey, only you don’t have to put 25% down and you walk into equity and the exit is already planed and the tenant buyer gets connected with a lender upfront to help them get ready to exercise in the option within 3 years.So that is what makes this different than other models.

It offers a great opportunity to learn the ins and outs of the industry while building a network. 

Real estate courses and networking began for me in Summer 2021. 

if you know your stuff and know how to deliver a message and network by being consistent enough you will always close deals!  

The networking and local market insights are invaluable.For retirement planning, focus on building steady cash flow and consider setting aside a healthy maintenance fund (I usually recommend 6 months of expenses) to protect against any surprises.If you're looking to expand your portfolio, Columbus is a great market where we still see positive cash flowing deals with lots of appreciation potential.

This immersive event offers cutting-edge insights, powerful networking, and strategies to scale your portfolio.

(Further context on the role, the business has solid marketing and network established.

The best way to find an investor friendly broker is at a RE meetup, but you can also just ask around in your local network or google.
