Starting a Meet-up Groups in Los Angeles

Starting a Meet-up Groups in Los Angeles

Sylmar, CA · Member since 2017 · 47 posts · 28 votes

Hey Guys,

I have noticed that the closest meetup events for The Greater Los Angeles Area are always in Riverside. I want something closer to my areas of operation (military term) and I have found 2 locations I can use. One in Downtown LA, and the other in Culver City. (2 more possibilities is Hollywood & The Valley)

    Wanted to see if any other members here would be interested in participating? I have found that too many groups are just way too pitchy or are trying to sell some MLM nonsense that is not even related to Real Estate.

      If this sounds like something you are interested in please leave a comment stating with the following information below. I will start to calendar some dates.

      1. Area, 
      2. Day(s) of the week you can meet up
      3. Frequency you'd like to meet

        Looking forward to meeting up with you all soon.

          Best,

          Ruddy

          Hi @Ruddy Anthony Salazar

          There is a free BP meetup in Santa Monica the second Saturday of every month.  It's not sales pitchy at all.
           

          It starts at 11am and goes for a couple of hours.  Don't forget to bring your business cards because there's a lot of opportunity to network there.  It's located at 

          The UnUrban Cafe, 3301 Pico Blvd, Santa Monica

          Hope to see you there!

          Khoa

            A meet-up sounds awesome! Culver City is probably closest to me.

            I am excited to meet like-minded people who are success driven, but no one is there trying to pitch anyone or any kind of MLM garbage? ("No Money Down Real Estate" or Pre- Paid Legal, etc.). I am sure we have ALL heard enough of it. I understand everyone has their hustle, but there is a time and a place.

            Look forward to meeting some of you soon!

            Hi,

            Not sure if this group idea is still something in the works or a dying idea. Lots of aged messages, no recent updates. 

            One thing is certain - there's certainly a demand for an LA/Culver City investment group. I'm open to helping get this started if there are 2 or 3 others who are willing to chat offline and join me in getting this going? 

            I started a small local interest group outside of this forum last year that fizzled. None of us knew what we were doing and we had different ideas about what types of investments we wanted to make and low participation. That was before I found @BiggerPockets! Happy to try my hand at this again if others are interested, motivated and want to do this!

            PM if you're ready to crush it in 2019!!!

            @Jay Williams We host a meetup that has 3 chapters, Long Beach, South Bay and West LA.  Let me know if you'd like more info on them, we focus on out of state apartment investing.  I am also open to attending a meetup in the Culver City area.

            @Kyle Mitchell  I would be VERY interested as well, thanks for the heads up. I am in Westwood and Culver City is pretty central. I  always prefer restaurants over coffee shops...Starbucks business meetings feel like an MLM gathering or a weak pitch session.

            @Kyle Mitchell and @Jay Williams and @Victor Viyuoh there are a few meetups in the Los Angeles area.

            There is one in Santa Monica and then in South Los Angeles that takes place at different locations.  The group contact for Los Angeles is @kj

            We host the South LA meetup and there's also a monthly meetup in Santa Monica hosted by Jeff Greenberg.

            Thanks, @Michael Tripp. I know of the South LA meetup. The trouble is that it meets on the weekends, I think 10am or so. I work weekends day. 'Looking for a meetup that's in the evening, any day. I am in South LA so a Culver City meetup would be good. But I work in Burbank so something in the valley or even Pasadena would work as well. Thanks.

            Hi Rudy, I am in Downtown and Beverly Hills but my territory is all over LA (mostly Westside).  I was thinking that I'd like to expand my network so I would be interested in hearing about what type of group your thinking of forming.  Let's connect and learn more.  Look forward to hearing from you.  Best,

            I'd come to a DTLA one.

            Weeknights, once per month.

            I would love to find a Valley meet-up. I think a couple of years ago there used to be one on Wednesdays at the Sizzler in Van Nuys.

            Came across this old thread... hosting one in two weeks at Highland Park Brewery by Chinatown Metro stop close to DTLA on Thur Nov 7 <https://www.meetup.com/Snowball-Real-Estate-Meetup/events/265889251/> No pitching no BS just sharing stories trading notes happy hour kind of format. Hope to see you there @Kyle Mitchell @KJ L. @Peggy Liu @Jeffrey Almonte @Vivian Huang @Shawn Ward @Brandon Foster @Joseph M.! 

            Open to other locations as well... scoping out some places in Silver Lake/Echo Park area.

            Scouting locations along San Gabriel Valley, too. Might do it at Arrow Lodge in Covina or the upcoming Glendora Public Market where Smog City is going to anchor. Trying to find places close to the freeway haha. Taking space suggestions!
