Well, I can't say how disappointed I am. You want to find active investors, but not willing to attend a meeting of them, interesting.

NO matter where you are located, one of the best sources of information is local investors. Most are found at local REI clubs.

Local REI clubs are a great source of information. If you want to network, do deals with, find sources of funds, contractors, etc. These referrals are priceless from other investors.

Good luck!

Jason Vought · Answer

I have bought a few properties, but I have not experienced the success that I had hoped for. I have learned a lot from the experience though.

Jason Vought I wouldn't say "DUMB" just short sighted is all. We have all done things like that. Are you still investing? Have you done any deals?

Uwe S. Brad E Ryan Steele I was pretty dumb back then, huh? I am definitely learning from my mistakes. Hope everyone is doing well!

Uwe S. · Answer

Sorry Brad E but this post is 5 years old, so Jason Vought made a decision long time ago.
He is still active on BP so we can ask him about this. Hope he will answer.

Larry Karp · Answer

Joining a real estate club was the smartest decision I made when I began investing.

I found my first flip from a member of the club. I found my Realtor at the club meeting. I also found my mortgage broker at a club meeting.

I just made a private money loan to a club member in another state. I'm happily earning 15% on my money.

I'm considering a joint venture opportunity on a L/O of a duplex with another member I meet at a club meeting.

A short sale I signed up last summer and the bank accepted was purchased as a rental unit by a club member.

I'm putting together a joint venture opportunity with two other investors I met at the club meetings to market for property  and sell wholesale in a specific area.

This all happened in the past 12 months. Yes, the club is WCRT. None of this would have been accomplished without membership in a club.  Don't EVER think the other club members are your competition. They are your partners. Where do you turn for help if not a club?
