What an unforgettable experience and what an honor it was to meet so many of you!

I have been to a few big conferences, book launches, and numerous local meetups, but nothing can even come close to BPCON 2023 in Orlando last week. The amount of likeminded attendees who have come from similar backgrounds or journeys to begin their real estate investing careers really helps an individual in this space find a place they can call home. There is not a better place in the world for an investor to find the right community, resources, partners, and passion to get them started in the right direction. 

The power of networking was put on full display as one of the biggest takeaways from the event was showing that your potential is unlimited with the right team and goals in mind. From structured breakout networking sessions to quick business card exchanges in the hall ways of the hotel, it seemed every corner you looked there was a business plan or partnership forming right in front of you creating a sense of urgency to join the crowd! 

If you are on the fence about attending in the future, as I have been in the past, let this be your inner voice telling you to absolutely attend the next BPCON. I can honestly say I have added an abundance of impactful investors to my network and had some of the most beneficial conversations to propel my investing career in the right direction, in just a 3 day span! DeVon Kennard wrapped up his session with a quote that will resonate with me throughout the remainder of my professional career: "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, build a team."

I am a very small fish in a huge pond, but the impact of my first BPCON has provided me with an even stronger sense of community built into my personal portfolio.

Here's to meeting at BPCON2024 in Cancun!!!🏝️

    @Noah Bacon, it was my first as well. I went technically as a vendor BUT I've been in the BP community for quite a while now and was really impressed overall. Networking was excellent. I'm curious if Cancun will be prohibitive to the smaller investors that would be on the fringe of going to a state-side BPCON? Thoughts?  Either way, we'll be there again as we were 110% assured that we'll be able to help a lot of BP folks out this year. 

    Looking forward to next year. We'll be bringing more of our guys for sure.

    Hey Greg! Glad to hear your positive experience as well from the vendor side. I'm not sure I quite understand your question. I just sent you a message if you'd like to discuss!
