I just moved to Atlanta and would like to get to know other experienced investors. I know there’s a lot of you out there! Where do ya’ll get together? We went to a GAREIA meeting awhile back, but everyone, and I mean everyone we met had little to no experience. Thanks.

Hey Josh:

As you may know, there are 3 REIA’s in metro-Atlanta: 1) GaREIA that meets on the 2nd Monday of each month and dozens of subgroups that meet thru-out each month. 2) The REIA that was mentioned by Jeffrey and 3) North GaREIA that meets on 3rd Tuesday of each month in Cartersville’s Holiday Inn off Exit 293 on I-75 North. Each REIA group offers a distinct level of information. Many GaREIA members focus inside I-285 while most North GaREIA members invest outside I-285 (in the northern counties, like: Bartow, Cherokee, Gordon, etc.).

Your best bet is to talk to many, many investors until you find one (or a group) who will share their REI experiences with you. Keep talking to people! You’ll find lots of investors in ATL.

Hope this helps.

Hit the full-timers subgroup because, well, it is for full-time investors in the Atlanta area :slight_smile:

Josh, We have another investors group that meets the 1st Thurs. of each month. It’s smaller then GaREIA and the networking is much better.

GaREIA not so bad - Posted by TaMo-Atlanta

If you want to find experienced people at the GaREIA general meeting look to those that are selling properties. The subgroups tend to be a bit more experienced. Otherwise, I’d like to hear how other investors in Atlanta pow-wow.

Josh,

If everyone, that you met had no experience, then you didn’t meet the right people. There are tons of experiences and ‘big time’ investors at the meetings.
You should consider joining a subgroup. That allows you to meet more people one on one.

Stephen,

I know, that the early birds fulltimers group is only by invitation, as it’s full. Josh did not specify, that he’s fulltime.
