For you that have been here awhile, Are there any BP meet ups?

I'm a complete newbie to the real estate game, who dreams of starting my own residential real estate empire, buying and holding homes across the country in consistent markets to generate passive income in order to be my own boss. 

I would love to meet up with anyone in the Greater Seattle Area to start a fix and flip!  

I would be happy to help analyze deals (I recently built an easy to use excel model, which I'm happy to share) in exchange for meeting to discuss your business or to shadow investors as they meet with brokers, manage property (tenant walkthroughs, rent collection, repair supervision, eviction, etc.), negotiations, and closings.

Hey Peter -Nice to meet you and that sounds like a cool plan!

This is a great place to network and meet other investors. 

Most HML lenders want you to have some skin in the game.

Hi all,I live in the Indianapolis area and am starting to think about potentially becoming a private money lender...I'm going to have to brush up on what the current state of real estate is as I haven't looked into the markets, etc in a while...My current question is related to CIREIA...Can anyone tell me what the 160 fee to join includes other than a monthly meeting and discounts at some stores?

I have had good success here in columbus so far - anyone want to meet up ?  

If you use DM correctly you can show folks that you value their time, would like to meet with them, and have their best interests in mind.
