local REIA membership worth it?

[Nicholas Alexander]

I am starting out and was wondering if it was worth it to buy a membership with the local REIA group? Given Covid restrictions on gathering I was wondering how folks are doing local networking? Thanks

It all depends on what you get for your membership.  Is the club active right now?  If a club has remained innovative and active during covid - Awesome.  If you can promote deals or network through the membership - Awesome.  If you get additional perks like discounts at local stores, etc even better.  

If you're paying a fee to just have the right to attend a meeting, no thanks.  I can't always go, so I prefer the pay as you attend method.  If you get perks that are worthwhile to you and your business then absolutely!  

Best of Success!
