Join our SB REIA Meetup - it's Free - you must register here through Meetup for all meetings so we can get a good attendance count. If it's your first time you get in free, if not then it's $10 online through our website above not through Meetup or $20 at the door.
If you are starting your investing with only $1,000 why start with no information or education when you can network with Santa Barbara millionaires! They will give you some very good advice of what to do and what not to do. They didn't get there without making some very expensive mistakes that you can now avoid by learning from them.
Dan Ringwald, is the President of the Santa Barbara Real Estate Investors Association. He created the SB REIA in 2008 as a community service project for education and networking on real estate investing. His goal is to provide the best for less and that's why it's FREE and Online all the Time.
YouTube.com/DanRingwald - see all the past videos and educational information. Videos are great but you can't network and you can't ask those all important questions. Dan met a Santa Barbara multimillionaire private lender at a REIA meeting and he got a private loan which was used to pay down his credit card debt. That moved his credit score from 612 to 800 in 90 days. It was a private loan so it did not show up on his credit. He paid off his credit cards and they had no clue it came from a private loan. Da, where does someone just come up with a $100,000 to pay off credit card debt? That qualified him to refinance his primary home and one of his rentals in Santa Barbara and paid off his private lender all at the same time. That is the power of networking and real estate education!

Real Estate Agent Virtual Coffee Mastermind
·OnlineOnlineStart your morning... with a coffee & friends from all over the country. Don't miss out on our live (virtual) networking event every Thursday morning. It's the perfect opportunity to build relationships with Realtors across the state and across the country (sometimes even on the other side of the world) that will serve your clients well when they need a referral.
We have a short educational/informative presentation at the beginning of the meeting and then go into 3 or 4 person breakout rooms where you can get to know the other attendees. At the end there will be time for you to download the contact info of everyone who attended so you can follow up.
If you're not already a member of our fb group, you can join here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/therealestateagentreferralnetwork

REI : Build me the "Bring Me Deals Machine"
·OnlineOnlineEverybody says, “Just network.” Cool… but networking doesn’t pay you. A deal network pays you—when people trust you enough to send you real opportunities.
This education session shows you how to build a repeatable network that brings you deals from the right people: agents, wholesalers, landlords, probate attorneys, property managers, contractors, lenders, and everyday “in-the-know” locals. But we’re not stopping at “meet people and swap business cards.”
Here’s the caveat most people ignore: If you can’t close, people stop sending deals. Your reputation becomes the bottleneck.
In this class, you’ll learn:- How to position yourself so people see you as a serious buyer/operator (not a tire-kicker)
- The 5 network lanes that produce the most deals (and how to plug into each one fast)
- What to say when asking for deals so you don’t sound desperate or clueless
- How to build a simple “deal intake” system so leads don’t die in your inbox
- The credibility stack: proof of funds, lender relationships, buyer criteria, and response time
- The close-capability test: how to know what you can actually close—and how to structure options when you can’t (JV, assignments, funding partners, disposition plans)
- Follow-up rhythms that keep you top-of-mind without being annoying
You’ll leave with a clear plan to build a network that feeds you deals consistently—and a reality check on what you must have in place so your network doesn’t outgrow your ability to perform.
Bottom line: We’ll help you build the pipeline—and the close plan—so when deals come in, you don’t fumble them.REGISTER HERE: SIGN UP TODAY
