I am looking into joining real estate investor clubs in Burlingame, Daly City, San Bruno, Foster City area (California - bay area). But I would like to hear from people from the mentioned area of which investor club is good to join. I'm doing research as to how to find good club and there are quite few things to look out for. But with limited amount of money, I can't afford to join one investor club to find out that it's not what I thought it would be (hypothetically speaking).

If you're from the area, I'd appreciate it if you can chime in your thoughts of good investor clubs in the area!

Thanks so much!

I haven't been there in a while, but http://www.creonline.com usually has a link for Real Estate clubs by location. Maybe you'll find one there.

I wouldn't limit yourself to clubs. Mostly pitches from people with techniques that might get you into trouble if you are an investor and a licensed Real Estate agent.

Go to the bookstore instead and browse the books for sale. For $40 bucks you could pick a few seriously written books and learn a thing or two.

Go to the investment clubs to network and learn from the speakers - but keep your check book and credit cards at home.

The deal they offer at the seminar will most likely be available later (after you've slept on it) if you really want to invest a $1000 on audio cds, videos, and a bunch of poorly written materials that don't cover risk factors and basically sell you BEST CASE SCENARIO techniques with forms and contracts that probably aren't legal for you to use (especially as a Realtor) in your state.

Don't rush into investing.

Use this time to learn everything you can while you build your credit and cash reserves, and develop your network of contacts.

You'll need investors, tradespeople, title reps, etc.

You can definately meet these people at the investor club meetings.
