The 2019 SF Bay Real Estate Networking Summit is confirmed for Feb 16 & 17 in Oakland, CA!

For the fourth time, hundreds of real estate investors and experts will be gathering in the San Francisco Bay Area for a weekend of learning, networking, and joining forces to grow our real estate businesses!

This conference is different than others because we skip the salesmanship ******** - only straight content - and everyone shares in the most open way. No better way to make connections with the right people.

VENUE: Oakland, CA

DATE: Feb 16 & 17, 2019

TIME: 8am - 5pm

TICKET PRICE: $295 for Super Early Bird 2-day pass (tickets will go up as we near the summit)

This is NOT a BiggerPockets event. But you'll recognize some familiar faces.

Hey, we're stoked to have you out! @KathtFettke , @J Scott , @Jeff Pollack , @Jason Buzi , @Matt Faircloth, @Ben Leybovich,@Jay Hinrichs, @Raul Luna! What are you most excited about or risk-averse in today's market?

A lot more speakers are coming out to share their experiences and answer YOUR questions. ;)

Get your tickets here at www.SFBaySummit2019.com (Super Early Bird Tickets are now available!!). Get a tax deduction, and get seriously inspired!

The event will include lots of targeted networking, discussion panels, breakout groups, drinking, and a great time, over the weekend.

Here are some of last year’s highlights:

"An exceedingly well-done conference, especially in terms of venue, speakers, vendors, information presented and opportunities for connection. What I learned and who I met will catapult me years forward in my abilities. Count me in for the next one!" - Erin A., Stockton, CA

"This was my first conference, I was not sure what to expect. I was definitely encouraged when I saw a lot of excitement on the Biggerpockets community leading up to the event. And perfectly honest, day one blew away my expectations. Keynotes were helpful and informative and the networking sessions have been invaluable." - Rohann

"There's a lot of information here and being able to network with other people more experienced than myself." - Doug Chinn, Berkeley CA

Event: SF Bay Real Estate Networking Summit

Date: Sat & Sun, Feb 16 & 17, 2019

Location: Oakland, CA @ Oakland Scottish Rite Center

Get more info & tickets here: www.SFBaySummit2019.com. The earlier, the cheaper!

Always a great event!  This is the biggest gathering of like-minded real estate folks in the Bay Area. Two days of great content, I heard a lot of people last year that came for only one day regret it and wish they’d attended both days.  So glad to see you putting this on again, J!

     I'm trying my best! Bruce is busy. But he's super insightful on the economy.. especially in CA. 
    Fortunately.. we have a great lineup of super experienced real estate investors like you coming out! So I think we'll be good either way ;)  Appreciate you coming down from Oregon Jay!! Means a lot to me and the other attendees :)

     Thanks for the shout out Brian, and glad you can come back for EVERY SF Bay Summit so far!! :) 
    You're the man!!!!

    I really appreciate you being a part of it since the first one wayyy back! I'll see you Feb 16 & 17!

     Let me check with my event planner, so I don't give you the wrong info. I think it's supposed to include lunch, the podcast/audio recordings from the event, and I think something else. But it should be listed there with the tickets.. I agree.. 

    I'll check and get back to you! Thanks Elizabeth. And looking forward to seeing you there! :)

    Hey Bay Area folks! 

    You won't be able to see local folks like Jason Buzi, Raul Luna, Jeff Pollack and BP members like J Scott, Jay Hinrichs, Dave Van Horn, Ben Leybovich, and more all under one roof in one weekend.. So don't miss it on Feb 16 & 17! We'll be in Oakland. So whether you're coming up from Santa Cruz or San Jose, or down from Napa & Sonoma, it's not a far drive. If you're in San Francisco, just across the bridge! Take BART to Lake Merritt :)  Walnut Creek, Fremont, Berkeley, Richmond, Palo Alto are all also a close drive or BART/Caltrain ride. 

    Easier than driving to every meetup around the Bay for the next year!

    Why you should come: 

    - no bull-shlt

    - no sales pitches

    - open, "philosophy of abundance" sharing, just like BP!

    - breadth and depth of speaker and attendee investing experience

    - relaxed atmosphere to make connections and up your game

    www.sfbaysummit2019.com

    This is NOT a BP event!

    We'll be having him at the @SFBaySummit on Feb 16 & Feb 17 in Oakland, CA. Join us and learn more about the note investing business! Get your Early Bird tickets here! https://bit.ly/2skgqYz

    @Jenelle H. and @Roman S., I'm going to try to finish it today. 

    Saturday is usually focused a bit more on different strategies, and Sunday a bit more focused on the SF Bay Area. We'll be hitting on multifamily, syndications, fix & flip, Airbnb, the economy and recession, note investing, and have some business-related topics. Most speakers will also have a breakout session after their panel discussion, so you can get in a smaller group to ask specific questions.. 

    I'll send out an email and post stuff up here too. Let me know if you have any other questions!

    Purchased my ticket earlier @J. Martin

    Due to my mobility issues I'll only be attending for one day. Is the ticket good for Saturday or Sunday only??

    @J. Martin - What is the refund policy? I've tried messaging yourself and I've emailed the organizer a few but times but haven't had much luck. I'd love to go but had an emergency come up that weekend that I'll need to attend to. Please advise, thanks.

     Your one-day ticket is good for either day Mark. Good to see you back for another year, and the venue has all the same accessibility as last year. We'll have lots of volunteers on-site if you need help with anything. See you next weekend! :)

    Here's the agenda :) 

    @Jenelle H., 

    I saw you on the ticket list. Glad you can make it all the way out! THanks for your patience on the agenda, and all the info is updated in the Whova app also. You can make your own agenda from the sessions, in the app. Looking forward to seeing you there!

    Feb 16 & 17 is coming up quick folks!
    Check out the updated agenda, including Scott Trench, J Scott, Dave Van Horn, Jay Hinrichs, Ben Leybovich, Matt Faircloth, Liz Faircloth, Al Williamson, Elizabeth Colgrove,  and more!! This is NOT a Bigger Pockets event, but you'll see lots of familiar faces!

    For those of you around the Bay in San Francisco, Oakland, San Mateo, San Jose, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Hayward, Fremont, Piedmont, Richmond, El Cerrito, San Rafael, Marin, Vallejo, and all the way up to Sacramento.. Don't miss it!

    You can condense a year's worth of meetup networking into a single weekend, along with the education from the breadth of our speakers (and always a great time!) This is the 4th year I've held the Summit, and I'm always amazed by the open, sharing nature and "philosophy of abundance" nature of all the speakers and attendees at the event. This networking is what got me traveling the world full time. What do you want to do with your time? Let's get a step closer next weekend at the SF Bay Summit!
