Hello BiggerPockets Community,

I’ve noticed that we only have a few real estate investor events/groups locally in Jacksonville Florida/ Northeast Florida. Please comment on this post if you are local. I’d be happy to organize an event for us all to meet.

All the best,

Evan

@Tucker Jones Thanks for commenting and connecting. I frequently travel to St. Augustine. I’ve been wanting to purchase a vacation rental near the downtown area for some time, but I haven’t come by the right property or management company. Let me know if you know of any opportunities or great vacation rental managers.

@Evan Greenfield

I am not local to Jacksonville, but I use @Ryan Robbins as my Realtor and he has been incredible to me so far. He invests himself so if you need a solid Realtor connect, reach out to him!

@Ryan Robbins and everyone, @Benjamin Bennett puts together a monthly event for Jacksonville area investors. The next one is 11 July at Wicked Barley at 6pm. He created an event on BP — if you look under events, you should be able to see it and all the details.

Hi everyone. I am new here to the BP forum and new to RE investing. This is actually my first ever post/reply on the forum! I am located here in Jacksonville also and am looking to meet other investors to learn more and meetups sound like a great way to do that.

@Greg Hansen I actually saw this July meetup scheduled at Wicked Barley last week and marked it on my calendar and am hoping to attend as well. Looking forward to getting to know other investors here in Jax!

I think a group would be great. I own a real estate company in Jacksonville 32225 and our primary focus is property management. I received my real estate license in 2004 and have worked in real estate & property management for the past 15 years. I'm intersted in meeting. Take care, Matt MacDonald

I live just North of St. Aug but work downtown Jax for a REIT.

Would love to finally meet up with some like minded folks and possibly leverage each other and make new contacts/friends/partners in the process.

Like several others mentioned, I live in North St Augustine (WGV) and work in Jax. I have owned one rental out of necessity (bought my first primary in 2005) but would like to start acquiring cash flow units. Trying to learn all I can on BP and listening to the Podcasts but would like to meet up with the local community.

Evan,

It looks like you asked the right question as I would also be interested in a meetup. I haven't bought any investments yet. I am interested in learning more and meeting people in this market. I love living here and hope to get more involved in the community and even help the community through REI.

 Hey Adam I searched events and didn’t see this meetup. Can you post a link to the event by chance?
