Welcome to the January Midwest Real Estate Investor Meetup in Peoria. For those of you returning, we're so glad you enjoyed the previous meetups and we look forward to seeing you again.
For those of you that are new around here... Mike Gudat and Brad Stegall of Acceleration Ventures welcome you! They both started investing in their early 20's by house hacking duplexes. Mike has been involved with the acquisition or sale of over 1,000 units. Brad and Mike are currently business partners on 144 units in and around Peoria. Outside of their partnership, Brad owns 49 units in the Peoria area.
For our January meetup, we are going to hear from local developer Katie Kim with The Kim Group. After a successful career with Accenture in Chicago, Katie came back to Peoria in 2006 to work for the family company, Horan Construction. With the move back home, Katie and Charles brought The Kim Group to Peoria where they expanded the services of The Kim Group to include real estate and property management services for clients. In 2015, Katie left the family business and re-launched The Kim Group with their Professional Services division. It combines Katie’s love for helping people realize their dreams with all of her professional background in evaluating strategic operations and implementations, construction, development, real estate, investing, and property management. In addition to being a buy and hold investor, she chose to go into development on projects like Keller Station, Samuel Avenue condominiums, Trefzgers Bakery, Cooperage 214, and 1009 Washington. She will talk about the massive benefits and challenges that come from development.
We will still allow plenty of time for networking at the beginning and the end of the meetup. Remember our mission: to help investors get started, to help connect people to find deals, to teach people about creative financing, to help everyone win big with real estate investing.

Event Date/Time: Tuesday, January 11th, 2021 from 11:45am to 1:00pm (lunch served)
