DFW is meetup central it seems like to me. Meetups and happy hours all over town almost every day of the week. I've attended most at one time or another, typically when they have a speaker that interests me.
DFW Investor Groups
Please note I am not affiliated in any way with any of the groups other than that I have attended some of their meetings/presentations. Many groups during Covid have switched to online only or a combination of online/in person events. Many now getting back to live events. These groups are often in flux about where they meet, when they meet, how often they meet, so this is meant to be a general resource.
NTAREI- https://ntarei.com/ Normally meets about 2x a month in North Dallas at the Holiday Inn at Preston and LBJ NE corner. Some vendors present. Probably 20-120 in attendance depending on the topic. Meeting is normally on Thursday nights, occasionally on Tuesdays, and some full day Saturday seminars. Could be in person or online. Organizer is Roger.
Texas Tuesday DFW Real Estate Mastermind- https://ttdfwrem.com/ Has met 1st or 2nd Tuesday of the month Venue has changed cities and locations several times, but seems to be currently meeting in Ft. Worth. Great energy with this group. Tends to attract a younger /trendy crowd. Location could change. Used to be on 1st Tuesday of the month, but has occasionally met on different days.
