Bigger Pocket meetup in Calgary?

Question

Hi,

I recently joined Bigger Pockets and would love to network with fellow members in Calgary and surrounding areas.

Is there an existing Bigger Pocket meetup or a networking club in Calgary?

Regards,

Ajay

Happy new year folks!

Thanks for your suggestions regarding the timing.

Would the next Wednesday (January 06, 2020) at 8 pm work work for everyone ?

I can schedule a zoom call.

Regards,

Ajay

Currently, weekday evenings are preferred. My suggestion would be to have it earlier in the month, perhaps the first Tuesday/Wednesday.

If weekends work well for the majority, I am happy to make time for it.

I can make an online chat (discord etc.) so new members could join, participate, and go as they please.

Great!

What works better weekday evenings or weekends?

Any suggestions?

Hi @Ajay Sandhu, @Jason Tang,

Happy to hop on a zoom call as well to discuss real estate, this could a good way to initiate an informal online meetup.

I know @Harrison Montgomery would most likely be interested from a previous chat we had.

Hello Jason,

That is great suggestions. Let us start start a monthly Bigger Pockets meet up (online for now).

What does other Bigger Pockets members think of this idea?

Hey everyone! Glad to have come across this post as I am on the search for locals with the same goal in mind. Would love to participate in this online meet up. Perhaps we could make it a routinely thing each month or so?

Hi Kevin & Harrison,

Thanks for your reply and suggestions regarding the online meetup.

@Kevin, I would love to chat about real estate, let me know what platform and time works best for you.

@Harrison, I have a couple of rentals and working towards my first flip / BRRRR deal. What is the area of your interest?

Regards,

Ajay

Hello Ajay! Welcome to Bigger Pockets. Like Kevin said there are meetups but they seem to be exclusively online only. What kind of investing are you interested in?

Hi @Ajay Sandhu,

Welcome to the forum fellow Calgarian!

You can find some active meetups in Calgary on the "meetup" site (they probably do them online right now).

You will find some investors from Calgary here on the forum that usually happy to connect and chat and I'm one of them :)

Let me know if you want to chat sometime!

Kevin
