Pre-Investment Club Meeting Check List

For most new investors one of the scariest parts of getting started is attending a Real Estate Investment Club Meeting. Most fears come from wondering what to say, what kind of questions should I be asking, how do I introduce myself? All of these fears and concerns are very valid. We have put together a little "Pre-Investment Club Meeting Checklist" to help calm some fears and help you prepare for the meeting. Investment Clubs are a great place to network and meet people in the real estate industry. Everyone who is or wants to get into real estate needs to be networking through investment clubs or groups. Hopefully this little checklist will help prepare you and give you a little more confidence to get out the door and over to an investment club near you. Enjoy
