Hello! I am new to the real estate and investing field and looking top meet up with experienced investors or agent investors in the Cleveland and surrounding areas to network and learn! Can you help out at all?

@Frank Giampietro

Welcome to BP. I spend most of my time around Cleveland, but I've handled a few evictions in Medina Municipal Court too.

I'd recommend following the posts and podcasts by @James Wise too. He's the co-owner of a brokerage focused on income properties and is very active on these forums.

There's also a NE Ohio RE Meetup Group. Unfortunately I've had conflicts the past few months and haven't been able to attend, but it seems like a real who's who of Cleveland Area BP superstars. More information available here:

    Hi @Frank Giampietro Welcome to BP! 

    I have a rental property in Medina. Small world. Let me know if there's any way I can help with your REI goals.

    Welcome Frank!

    I'm also in Cleveland, NE Suburbs and researching properties now to get into the business.  I've been in commercial and real estate lending for over a decade, so anything I can help with on the finance side, I'm happy to help.

    Also - I plan on attending some of the Great Lakes REIA events.

    Feel free to reach out to me.

    Best of luck!

    -Joel
