Looking to connect and reconnect with folks invested or invested in investing in the Cedar Rapids and Iowa City area. Tenatively, Black Sheep, Monday April 14th at 5:30PM.

About 8 years I bought my first house on 16th avenue and it changed my life! Can't believe how lucky I am to have discovered house hacking and real estate investing in my early 20's. 

Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

Purchase price: $180,000
Cash invested: $30,000
Sale price: $270,000

Purchased a unliavable home in Iowa City, and turned it into a beautiful home for. a young family.

Hey folks! I think March 18th is our plan for another meet-up from 5:30pm-7pm at the Kirkwood Hotel lobby bar. Short notice but it'll be great if you can make it!

Thanks everyone that came to the Meet-Up on Feb. 18th, at the Kirkwood Hotel. Great turn-out! I'd love to set-up another one in March. 

February 18th at the Kirkwood Hotel lobby we'll be doing a meet-up between 5-7pm. I'd like to get something going every month to talk with like-minded people. Feel free to message me or connect 

Hey! My brother and I have been doing some meet-ups at the Kirkwood Hotel. We took a break over the winter. But we would like to get something started February 18th or 19th for a meet-up. Thoughts? 

Hey Dejan,

Sorry for the long delay. So it's really simple actually, if you hop on facebook you can check out Marketplace. From there you can add your property at whatever rate you want. 

Sort of, I've found that I can increase my margin by utilizing Facebook. I have this 3 bedroom, 2 baths that I've been renting for $1500 on 16th Ave. But I've essentially been able to use my FB marketing to create bidding on my property. 

Those new apartments in NewBo being build by Hatch Development aren't allowing pets. If you're okay with a dog, you can probably greatly increase your margin in the area. 

Hey all,

I actually have a few contractors that I work with on my rentals. What all do you need?
