Tagging a few 'colleagues' (some near, some not so near) to see if anyone is interested in a really informal REI coffee or something.... I see that there are a few of us in the area, some much more seasoned than others, and thought I might as well suggest some sort of meetup in the midcounty area.
Josh depending on the timing I would be willing to do a meet up.
In reality there is already a local group of investors who loosely stay in contact with each other. Mostly phone calls and the such. For the most part we know or know of each other.
Even though the area is not large it seems that each area has their own group of established investors. The groupings seem to be Mid county, Pa, North/South Beaumont, West Beaumont, Hardin County, Vidor, Orange, BC and Pa.
From my experience there has not been a lot of cross mingling. Most local investors tend to pick just one area. For example I know of one investor who only works in Groves. I also know a couple like this in Orange and Bridge City. Very few will own or operate in Beaumont and Port Arthur.
Several years back a few us would try to meet every so often. However, as everyone was busy eventually the meetings died off. Really the meetings were just reasons to hang out for an hour or two.
Oh, I should also mention that most of the investors I know are landlords or house flippers.
@Luis Becerra that would be great! Check out the doodle link, and see if your sched matches up with ours... looks like jeremiah and I have several days that are matching up.
Hey all in S.E Texas. Just wondering if there was any movement in the get together. Really would like to talk to "like minded" people. Free nights and weekends. Thanks
I'm willing to meet up. My schedule changes often but I'm sure I can make it a night or two. And I'd be willing to say @Josh Autery wouldn't mind meeting up as long as our schedules allow it.
I know this is short notice, but I am at Sertinos in Midcounty (port arthur / nederland) for the next hour or two. HMU if you wanna come chat. @Jeremiah Gentz@Curtis Denny@Matthew Candler
@Thomas Soliz always interested in a good deal. Feel free to message me some info on your best deals in setx. Also, you might wanna update your pic/profile. I, along with others, are wary of people who can't/won't take the time to share their info.
Hi Joe,
I'm in the Orange area and have property here Texas as well as in Louisiana. There are two meetup groups in Southeast Tx that are just getting started.
I realize that I'm about a year late here but I'm courious to see if anyone managed to get a group together for the SETX area and more so the Lake Charles, Sulphur, Westlake area?

Hello @David Mathews and welcome to BP. I replied once, but I was too specific about a meetup in Lake Charles and the moderator nuked my post! Check for a Lake Charles meetup in the events area of BP for more details on the event. :-)
