STARTING A MONTREAL BP MEETUP

Hello all,

I am a young, passionate and experienced real estate investor :) Pleasure to virtually meet you all.

Is it just me or are all the MTL meetups inactive or too expensive?

I am interested in starting a Montreal BP Meetup and curious to see the amount of people who would be welcome to the idea.

Please leave your comments :)

Hi @Alessandro C., there's a number of meetups organized by different organizations (CIIQ, Immofacile, etc) unrelated to BP, most of them do charge an entrance fee (usually 20$), though some of them are free (Mordus de l'immobilier, Pros de l'immo).

You can post an event on BP, just make sure to not include "BP" in the name of the event because the moderators will delete your event. I know because it happened to me :)

    Yes I an very interested! We could start one on meet up .com, unless theres a function to do it here! I am new to the city and investment properties, but I have put an offer on my first one and I am extremely eager to get active in this industry. I have so much to learn and so much passion for this. I would love to shadow someone or even jsut help them out somehow. Meet ups are a great idea where we could all benefit!

    @Alexandra Hollenbeck

    Thanks for your input. 

    @Philippe Laurin

    Thanks. I'll leave this post up and see how many more Montrealers comment :) 


    What is your experience with those events? Did you enjoy them? A lot of networking opportunities? Informative? Geared toward beginners/advanced RE investors? Insight obtained was able to be applied practically?

    I envision an event created through here being oriented toward true beginners. A place where newbies (including myself) can network and discover other newbies. Although informative, my experience with the events you had mentioned incorporated individuals perhaps a little too advanced for the average intrigued newbie to relate to.

    BTW I sent you both of you a "connect" request.

    @Alessandro C., you can discuss starting a meetup in these forums, but any announcement of a meetup must be posted in the Events Forum only.

    And @Philippe Laurin is correct, you cannot call it a BP or BiggerPockets Meetup, because that implies that we sponsor or endorse it.

    I'm interested as well. It will be great to meet other real-estate investors. Please start a Meetup if you can.

    @Alessandro C. I've organized a Meetup in February. Please message for the details, as BP won't let me advertise the link. Looking forward to seeing you all there

    Hey! 

    I’d be up to starting it up again if it isn’t.

    Hi Gerry,

    I am in the process of a project in NY.

    The Montreal meet up you had in mind was for local properties or diving into the US market?
