NETWORKING – connect with very nice and like-minded people –
a room full of local investors and landlords, lenders, contractors, brokers and other real estate professionals and vendors. Real estate investors are effectively invisible – there is no directory with all the names and details, and they don’t hangout on the corner waiting to meet you. Investor networking gatherings, like this one, are your primary source for making connection to tap into the opportunities. Your network is key for your success.
BUFFET DINNER
finger foods, sodas, and water.
MAKE YOUR OWN ANNOUNCEMENT
You will be allowed to make your own :30 second “Special Offer” announcement (advertise your property for sale, or any other business offering – for whatever you have that is special in your business = that is, new within the last 30 days). You must be one of the first three to sign up at the meeting, by 7:15.
Money Back SATISFACTION PROMISE
We’re certain that you will have a good time and gain a valuable experience. And to prove that, our policy is that anyone attending a NTAREI General Meeting for the first time, who is not satisfied with their experience, for any reason, will be provided with a full refund of their admission fee to that meeting.
