January 26th Central Coast REIA meeting

Hello Fellow Investors,

We are excited for this months REIA and there are some new things happening that we are fired up to share with you. This month we are having Dan Ringwald from the Santa Barbara REIA coming up to speak to us about marketing ourselves on the internet. His son and daughter, Michael and Alana will be joining us as well as they both play in integral part in their fathers business with building websites for the SBREIA, other investors and businesses in the Santa Barbara area. Our goal for the Central Coast REIA is to build a site where we can post properties, generate leads and help everyone take their businesses to the next level.

For February, we have scheduled the REIA for the 23rd. We have scheduled Lloyd Segal, a foreclosure expert specific to California that will be discussing several aspects of how to buy homes in various stages of default. We will have more information as the date draws closer. CC-REIA memebership - For those of you who would like to make the commitment to join the REIA, it is a $200 a year fee.

Last nights Santa Barbara REIA 1/5/12

The Santa Barbara REIA was a very good event. I met Dan Ringwald who is the President of the SBREIA and learned a lot in the short time he spoke. One of the things we're going to do for our own REIA is get a website up and running very soon. Dan's son Michael is a very good web designer and can do this for us very economically. Secondly, I also met Lloyd Segal a Foreclosure expert specific to California. In the time he spoke I learned more about foreclosures than I had previously. Lloyd has agreed to come and speak at our REIA in February and he will knock your socks off. I would like to thank Linda Pliagas of Realty 411 for introducing me to Lloyd.

The next meeting for the Central Coast REIA will be Jan. 26th at the Spyglass Restaurant in Pismo Beach.  Join us on Meetup.com if you would like more information.  www.meetup.com/cc-reia
