Hi All,
Last few months we have had over 20+ BP members attend this meetup, chatting about investing in the San Jose area and also out of state. @Jay Y. initially suggested this meetup and I have been keeping it going ever since. Regular experienced investors such as @J. Martin from Oakland and @Account Closed in San Jose have been attending. We welcome anyone who would like to attend!
When: Friday, October 17, 2014, 7:00pm
Where:Whispers Cafe and Creperie (outside patio)
(The cafe is in the same complex as City Sports and in the same building as Five Guys on the opposite side of the building.)
1085 E Brokaw Rd Ste 10 San Jose, CA 95131
Looking forward to meeting new investors and seeing familiar faces.
Regards,
Johnson

..."being a successful RE investor is having the ability to solve the seller's problem that no realtor or anyone out there can solve for them and believe or not all sellers have some type of problem they're trying to get rid of. If you ask the right questions, they will reveal their problems and bam you will get the big fish if you present a suitable solution to them"
Nicely put! It's all about knowing where to find the buttons waiting to be pushed.
I'll join the meetup *** well. I'm very excited to attend this very first meetup event to meet all you guys. My colleague @Moshe Gat who has been to several said it's very nice and helpful, so I'll be taking good advice.

I'll be there, hopefully early to network and learn more from everyone!
Would be my first. Also, I have a meeting place in Hayward and will ask you guys more on hosting one there, maybe at the meet-up because I don't want to hack the thread. Hehehe.

I am a bit bummed that I cannot make it this month.
I am currently in the middle of closing on a duplex in East Coast, and considering to do a small private money lending. Hopefully I have something exciting to share next month.

@Sandeep S. - Looking forward to seeing you again. I hope you're killing it in Houston!
@Ezra Nugroho - You'll be missed! I do want to hear about your new duplex. I am going to have dinner with @Harshad Ranade tomorrow night in Mountain View. Want to join us?

@Yuliany W. - I don't think so. We made it Mountain View as I am staying in a hotel there and its close by @Harshad Ranade work but I don't know where he works exactly. Just dont make us drive too far!
Once again, I have plans that prevent me from hitting this Meetup. Argh.......One of these days.
Happy hunting!
Cheers,
Jeff
