If you see your name tagged below, it is because BP has dropped the "List" functionality in forums. This means, I will not be tagging 100+ moving forward. If you name is below, and you would like to continue to get notifications about the upcoming meetings, send me a message with your email, and I will broadcast it that way. Thanks.

Because the group tagging didn't work...

Palm Beach County Investors (or future investors)...

There was a lot of interest in a pretty casual meeting from investors and future investors, and we've had GREAT meetings... why not another? It will be free to attend (and no pitching), but being good patrons, so they let us to continue to use the space for free, I say we get a cup of coffee.

Gizzi's Coffee: 2275 S Federal Hwy, Delray Beach, FL 33483 (1pm-4pm)

So, anyone want to grab some afternoon coffee in Delray Beach... maybe people from Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, Lake Worth, Boyton Beach, Boca Raton, or West Palm? Maybe even Broward County people would like to show...

This meeting is open to anyone that would like to attend.

Also... in an attempt to try something new, I will be bringing in all of the books I have read and will have a "leave one, take one" policy so that everyone will have a chance to read a great book!

SO, DON'T FORGET TO BRING A BOOK!

@Share Ross The next meetup will be January 20th. Same place, same time. I'll tag you in the next post.

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow... except @Bob Razler in his Santa suit.

Again... my city keywords have exploded in the form of email notifications. 

@Jacob Goodman  Welcome to the community. We have a meetup on Dec 16th in Delray if you are interested. Send me a msg if you'd like the details, as I can't promote those details in this forum.

 1) Southeast Florida. Miami up to Port Saint Lucie. Why? Because a good portion of my portfolio is already there, I live there, and I am familiar with the market.

2) Tulsa/OKC. Why? 7-9% Population increase, 25k+ income per capita, 180k+ avg home value, sub-4% unemployment

3) Charlotte. Why? 11% population increase, 33k income per capita, 256k+ avg home value, sub-5% unemployment

(Statistics courtesy of www.city-data.com)... HIGHLY recommend this site for data geeks.

There are MANY cities that fit these profiles in the country. 

Why did I choose these? Because I have been to these places, and I like the way I feel about these cities when I am there. If you want to invest around the country, I suggest spending the couple hundred to get on a flight and go explore that city. If you are willing to drop a couple hundred thousand for an investment, it's worth the weekend in a hotel. I have been to many cities this way, had myself a great time, but also felt that it wasn't right for investing. Trust your gut.

So to recap... you can invest ANYWHERE in the country. You can find your numbers to work within two hours of any market. It's just a matter of your level of comfort and your familiarity.  

I think everyone's city keywords just blew up in this post... 

@Silvana Elejalde  Unfortunately, the coffee shop closes at 4pm, so we have to meet from 1-4pm. However, usually the meetup continues outside for another 30-45 minutes.
