About us
At the Baltimore Washington Real Estate Investors Meetup - Something very unique happens the second Wednesday of every month, when real estate investors gather from across the Baltimore/Washington Metropolitan areas to learn from local and national experts in the most prolific investment community around. They experience the energy of networking and the warmth of a welcoming, supportive, and thriving investor community. In this dynamic environment, they are motivated and inspired to succeed. And they do deals - - right in the room!
Everything we do is geared toward helping our Members build, manage, and grow their business. We are driven by our mission to provide the most comprehensive real estate investment education and training, the best networking opportunities, and the most innovative tools and resources available. Our guest speakers are the best informed presenters - whether locally or nationally acclaimed. We carefully vet and select each speaker based on experience level and shared values. The BW REI Meetup is not your run of the mill “pitch-fest” that occurs at many REIA meetings. Instead, every speaker we invite comes to share their knowledge, best practices, and the tools and resources most relevant to TODAY’S real estate market – period!
Whether you invest in Maryland, Virginia, or the District of Columbia, you are welcome at the BW REI Meetup. Come to network, to learn, and to grow your real estate business!

Before you can successfully execute any real estate strategy, you have to develop the right mindset.
A strong investor mindset begins with self-awareness—understanding how you currently think, identifying the beliefs that may be holding you back, and learning to view challenges not as obstacles, but as opportunities to learn, adapt, and grow.
As we move through the remainder of 2026 and prepare to jump-start 2027, let’s explore the real estate opportunities and investment strategies you can identify, plan, and execute in today’s market.
What Strategy Makes Sense for You?
Whether you're just getting started or looking to expand your portfolio, we'll explore strategies such as:
Wholesaling
Fix & Flip
BRRRR
Buy & Hold
Creative Financing
Subject-To
Owner Financing
1031 Exchanges
Partnerships & Joint VenturesWe'll also discuss how mastermind groups, coaching, mentoring, and strategic partnerships can help you move from simply learning about real estate to actually executing deals.
Why Learn From Local Investors?
National coaching programs and online courses can provide valuable education—but they can only take you so far when it comes to understanding your local market.
Real estate is local.
The neighborhoods, property values, rental demand, financing options, contractors, buyers, sellers, regulations, and opportunities in the DMV can be very different from what you're being taught about markets across the country.
That's why learning from local investors who are actively in the trenches doing deals can be priceless.

✔ Buying properties in your market
✔ Negotiating with local sellers
✔ Working with local contractors and lenders
✔ Understanding neighborhood-specific opportunities
✔ Experiencing today's market firsthand
✔ Learning from both their successes AND their mistakesThis kind of real-world, hands-on knowledge can help you shorten your learning curve and make better-informed decisions.
And wouldn't it be valuable to have a local investor you can pick up the phone and call when you're analyzing a deal, facing a challenge, or trying to figure out your next move?
Your Network Can Become Your Competitive Advantage
Real estate investing doesn't have to be a solo journey.Getting connected with a strong local real estate community can give you access to knowledge, relationships, resources, potential partners, and opportunities that you may never discover on your own.
The goal isn't simply to learn another strategy.
The goal is to learn how to recognize opportunities, build the right relationships, take action, and execute deals.
Join us as we connect, share experiences, and explore strategies that can help you finish 2026 strong—and position yourself for an even better 2027.
Come ready to learn. Come ready to connect. Most importantly, come ready to execute.
We look forward to seeing you Wednesday at 7PM!
