Go to NETWORK at the top of your screen and you can search for other investors and investment groups in your area. You can also check meetup.com or search facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

There’s definitely a lot of money in Oakland county MI with Farmington hills, West Bloomfield, and Birmingham, MI all located there.

Our team routineLy comes out to the DTW market mainly for UWM one of our lending partners but we’ve grown quite fond of the area over the last couple of years. There is a lot of potential over there because RV or rent to price ratios are extremely good relative to our west coast markets we’re used to. The 1.00% rule there is the norm while a good deal might be considered 1.5-2.00x and you’ll need different metrics and strategies when buying there versus buying in Miami, FL or Seattle, WA.

On the scale of  appreciation/cyclical , hybrid market/strategy, or cash flow/linear market I’d say that market is mostly Linear/cash flow.

What are you looking to accomplish in your investing?

 Nice this is very close to UWM in Pontiac, MI perhaps even considered “down the street.”

How have the meetup turn outs been?

@Matthew Kwan@Carlos Valencia We should try to organize a success track around our trip to make one these, thoughts? 

[Carlos Valencia]

yeah that be great! Talk to local investors and help familiarize ourselves with the market more for that area.

Yes attending these local meetups can definitely expand your network and being familiarize your area when you're planning to invest
