Greetings all, newbie investor here and what everyone's thoughts were on an organization like REIA NYC? They have membership requirements ranging from $200 upwards to over $1k.


I'm looking to get out there (eventually after all this COVID mess) and network, meet, and learn from with other investors and am looking to see what the best ways are?

What groups or organizations do you guys recommend joining? What meet ups are the best in your opinion?

@Hung Tran Great question! I think that networking with REIA groups is a good thing! Learn from those already doing RE in your area and learn from them. You can also start putting your team together. Good luck!

@Hung Tran

You don't need to wait for COVID-19 to be over to start connecting with investors. A lot of networking groups are hosting events remotely via Zoom.

A lot of real estate networking events allow for new members to attend 1-2 events before buying the membership. You may want to try them out to see if they would be a good fit.

 Hey brother, no not yet if I'm being honest. My mind has been hyper focused on reading through my backlog of all the BP books in their publication. That and day-to-day work.


Have you come across any good groups or networking events by chance? Good to know you're local and an agent.
