Hey All- I have some clients interested in commercial properties in Colorado Springs. If you know of a good commercial agent, please DM me the details or post here. Thanks! - Erin

Thanks to everyone that joined Thursday night! The turn out was great and we covered a lot of interesting topics: notes, reverse 1031 exchanges, self-directed IRAs, local (and online) real estate schools, multiplexes in St. Louis, being a solo investor v. being a partner investor, etc.

I really enjoyed the conversations and the company. Will post again soon on next date and location.

Thanks again to everyone that came! @Lisa Reyna, @Jennifer Ward, @Denise Hammond, @Sabrina Moss, @Linda Weygant, @Mindy Jensen, @nikicao, @Erin Arcand, @christinasevilla

Hey All- Just a reminder that this is happening at 6PM tonight at Max's Wine & Dive. If you're going to be late, no worries. If you've already RSVP'd me an update, also no worries- just pinging you in case anything has changed. Will keep this list updated for our next meeting as well. For those of you that can join, see you tonight! - Erin

@Chris Kelch - Welcome! This is a great place to learn about investments, etc.

I can't speak to the other cities you mentioned, but I point a lot of our clients to Colorado Springs because of its current investment potential. US World News just ranked it the second best place to live in the US (Denver was 3rd) and the Denver Post listed it a few months back as the place most millennials are moving to in the country. It's cheaper than Denver currently, but not confident that will last. It's potential has sort of been long unrecognized. If you'd like to discuss more, please message me. - Erin

@Jennifer Ward - Hey there! Looking forward to meeting and come whenever you can! I'm sure we'll be chatting for awhile. 

@Stace Riley - you might also consider Pueblo, which is competitive, but is not where Denver/Colorado Springs are currently. There are places to get deals in Colorado still, but just not the two biggies on the front range. 

@Kimberly Gillock, @Sabrina Moss, @Linda Stowell - making it official. 

Hey. Hey. Hey. Calling all BP ladies... we are starting an investment club for women. Our inaugural event is 4/19 at 6PM at Max's Wine Dive in Capitol Hill. Neighborhood and street parking are available.

The point of this group is to socialize, throw around thoughts and ideas on investing and talk about next steps. For the first meetup, we'll do an ice breaker and that will simply be- if you've read a good book on investing or money management, tell us what it is and why you like it. 

Please RSVP me through email if you plan on attending. If we surpass 10 invites, we may change the location (and will update.) 

I'm very much looking forward to meeting all of you! Thanks - Erin

@Michael Vialpando - they used to cover professional photography, but they don't anymore. All the same, still get it because it's worth it. Also, don't rely strictly on Airbnb insurance (sounds like you aren't.) To the haters, show them this Gazette article on Residents and Tourists flooding into Colorado Springs and/or show them your bank account in two years. Okay, okay, don't do that because it's obnoxious, but yeah- go for it. They'll see. 

@Michael Vialpando - Nice house purchase! We love that house and think it's a great buy. Know you know this, but get insurance and get professional photos. Insurance because it's important and photos because they make a huge difference. Good luck!
