Hey Everyone!
I'm interested in connecting with other younger RE newbies. Could be great to have someone in a similar situation to bounce ideas off and may even be a way to find partners in the future! Not looking to formalize anything, just see who's around for now.
When it comes to financial independence (my objective), there are very few people I can discuss this with and not sound crazy.. but I figure there are some more like me out there :)
Hope everyone is having a happy and stress-free holiday season! I'm a new REI in the north Dallas area as well and I would love to meet you all if there is a time that everyone gets together this coming new year. Please don't hesitate to send me a PM whenever a meet up is set up. I will be checking back on this thread as well. Hope to meet everyone soon!
Clark, there is a good meetup that happens at the Richardson Fox and Hound about once a month. @Dana Chun usually sends a note out about it.
Also there is a meetup that happens about once a month organized by @Nick Hughes and that groups meets at the Gingerman.
Both are great groups, both have a lot of people just getting started and we try and attend them. Cheers!!!
@Jerry Thompson - you're definitely not alone there. Funny enough I was thinking the same thing the other day, it would be neat to meet up with other young professionals on BP.
Let's grab a drink sometime (I'll shoot you a pm), hopefully there's others here who would be interested as well.
Gentleman I am actually planning to be in Dallas and Plano this Wednesday and Thursday. Perhaps a meet up could work? I'd like to actually get into the US multifamily market.
Would love to meet up and bounce ideas around. BTW you're not crazy. RE just isn't a normal conversation for most young people. Let me know if you guys decide to meet up.

Hey Taj, thanks for the heads up... I'm booked this week but maybe some of the others are available, I'll be sure to connect with you here though. Are you relocating to the area or just visiting?

Will def keep you in the loop, thanks for commenting. It's the top of the month so I think meeting once this month would be a start. Will make sure to connect with you here as well.
I'm from the DFW area also! Reading through this thread, it's nice to see more like-minded individuals my age. I'm always up for an opportunity to meet new people and talk real estate investing :-) Let me know if this meet up happens. I'd love to join!
are we doing this? Is there an age limit? I'm young-ish
Definitely no age limit, being a newbie is more the common interest lol I noticed in the few RE meetups I had gone to, there weren't many other "young" investors so I figure others might have noticed the same thing. Anything you want to be involved in would be great, lookinf=g forward to meeting!
Learning from those with experience is def a great way to go, but having a support network you can relate to until you get there can also be helpful :)
Thanks to @Account Closed for mentioning the Events Forum (I'm new here too!), I created an event for this upcoming Saturday in Dallas. Really anyone can come.. feel free to post on the event page below, hope to see you there!
Definitely a noobie here. I'm 21 and recently started my FI/RE journey as well as my real estate journey. I've started funding my first down payment for a triplex or a quadplex because I am pretty sure I want to start out in multi-family buy&hold. Until I've raised the capital I need I plan on trying to be active on BP, reading as much as I can, and basically just being a sponge for information.
I would like to get started sooner, but I know in deals you have to bring something to the table, and I lack capital and experience, so therefore I wait.
Oh, btw, I'm in Arlington. Not exactly sure where I am wanting to start buying first. Any recommendations for neighborhoods/areas in the Fort Worth/NRH/Arlington sort of area?
I'm kind of late to the party, but I'm 21 years old, and I am extremely interested in connecting with other young REI's in the area, I live and market around the Fort Worth area, PM me if anyone's interested. @Jerry Thompson @Account Closed
@Jerry Thompson you are on point. All the REI events or meetings i have gone to so far i am generally one of the youngest persons present. I would definitely be interested if you guys were to have another meet up.
hello everyone I am a brand new REI in dfw are im 26. I am very motivated to have success in my business. it gives me a lot of joy to know that there are so many young RE investors in the area. me and my business partner would like to meet up with some of u guys exchange ideas and network.
Hi all! Just relocated to the DFW area a few weeks ago. Very interested in a potential meet up... I'm 26, looking to purchase my first rental property in 2018.
