My Bio
My name is Victor and I got fully invested in real estate about a year ago. I've always had an interest for the industry but never really had the opportunity to invest due to financial struggles or lack of other interested parties.
Luckily I found BP through podcasts and in my daily 2.5 hour commute, I treated BP like a school. I ingested as much as I could and decided to take the plunge.
I will be closing on my first duplex property this month, and as a first time investor and also being out of state, I must admit I am a little afraid.
This fear and the need to sooth my own thoughts helped me create my blog and this group...
Meeting Details
In front of the PF Changs there is a sitting area. We will meet there for introductions and discussions.
- No Sales Pitches
- Completely Free (Paid Parking $3 with validation)
Please keep in mind, this our first meeting and we are only here to establish an identity and learn as we go
A New Standard Meetup
The idea here is to create a community of first time investors, but more importantly, to be persistent in our journey to become financially free. This will become a meetup group that happens every other Wednesday evenings from 7pm to closing.
What is StartupREI?
Simply put, StartupREI was created to showcase my journey into the world of real estate with the intention of helping others to break their fears and jump into real estate investing feet first themselves.
Whether you suffer from analysis paralysis, trying to invest out of state or locally, or looking for single family homes or smaller multi-family, this community will help you see that the light at the end of the tunnel is much closer than it appears, and that your journey into REI is just beginning.
StartupREI will slowly develop a community of first time investors coming together to help one another get into real estate. We will stay connected with blog posts, upcoming interviews, a community wide slack channel, and more.
If you need a bit of inspiration, you can check out our blog at startuprei.com where my wife and I go through our weekly struggles of learning REI to try and become financially independent.
Parking
There is a parking structure in the galleria and nearby stores will validate. I believe parking comes out to $3.
