Jon,

There are many clubs in the metro LA area. I am on a few mailing lists for specific clubs.

There is a link on this site and on other sites (try google) if you want to find REIAs in S CA.

If you want to contact the folks in the other discussion send them a PM. Josh used to be in the metro area so he might have some specific people to contact if you want to attend existing meetings.

I am not an investor, but, my brokerage does have over 400 Southern California foreclosure and REO properties right now that we are offering at 65 to 80 cents on the dollar. Almost none of them are listed on the MLS either. I just thought that some of you might be interested.. My name is Joe.

The banks have not " listed" the properties with us technically speaking. Our brokerage has longstanding relationships with these banks and we have agreed to move these homes, typically to investors, without listing them, fast and effectively.

Will do. I just figured that since this forum's topic is Los Angeles, and since I only have Southern California REO's that I would inform this group first. Thanks for the advice though. It is appreciated.

Joe,

interested in some more info on your post.

Thanks,

E.

We're a group of investors having meetings in Pasadena. They've only been going on for a few weeks, and for now they're every Thursday so we can build a good following. It is a free event, and over the last few weeks we've had anywhere from 20-100 people attend. The location may change, but this week it's at the Pasadena Convention Center, with registration starting at 6:15pm, and networking at 6:30pm. The room number changes, so check the board or signs when you get there to find the room. Parking is tricky too, so get there early, and don't forget to bring lots of business cards.

Hi Jon,
Just joined the REI Club of LA. I went to the public meeting and it was very much about either joining the club or the sales pitch from a selected vendor. There was a members only meeting that I wasn't able to attend, but apparently that's more investor info, networking, etc.

Looking forward to next month so I can see what it's about.

I'm in LA and looking for rehabs. I've found it pretty hard to comp anything because of all the fluctuation in price and demand.

I am in Pasadena/San Gabriel Valley and I am seeking equity partners or somebody to purchase and/or assigned purchase contracts.

Hey everyone, I have attended a Los Angeles Real estate club meeting last week and was not impressed. I spent thirty dollars to hear some guy talk about making millions in four months. Seemed like a scam and being a student I can't fork over thirty dollars every month for a meeting. I am a senior in college and going to graduate from UCLA pretty soon. I am looking for a mentor or some one who is willing to teach the business. Let me know if you are looking for help in the Los Angeles or Orange County area. Thank you.
