About us
The Real Estate Investors Association of Greater Cincinnati (BKA REIAGC) is the tri-state area's original (established 1976!), largest (950 members and counting!) and most excited (you can tell from all the exclamation points!) community of real estate entrepreneurs.
We're new and experienced landlords, flippers, creative finance fans, wholesalers, retailers, lease/option fans, note buyers, lenders, and more...and we meet together to share resources, ideas, education, and inspiration.
If you're a big-pie person who knows that other people's success doesn't detract from yours, and you value hard-core education and advice from experienced local, regional and national experts, and you know that financial independence, like everything else worth having, requires hard work, and you're an ethical, prosperity-minded person, we welcome you!
Our general meetings, on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month, are open to the public; you can find the topic and download a free guest pass anytime at www.CincinnatiREIA.com.
We also host focus groups for members only on wholesaling, retailing, note buying, passive investing, creative buying and selling, landlording, investing in apartments, issues for women investors, and more; information is also available at www.CincinnatiREIA.com.
If you're serious about real estate investing, and want local, no B.S. information and inspiration to start or grow your own business or portfolio, you've found the right place. Join us for our next meeting!
We welcome your questions at (513) 407-3137 or via email at info@CincinnatiREIA.com.

2-Day Online Real Estate Investor Basic Training: The No-BS Guide to What You Need to Know Before You Do Your First Deal
Saturday & Sunday, September 26-27
9:00 AM-4:00 PM Eastern
ONLINE
With Vena Jones-Cox
Want to get into real estate investing?Then there's something you need to know:
The expensive part isn't learning how to do it.The expensive part is doing your first deal WITHOUT knowing what you're doing.
Especially in 2026.
Prices are high. Interest rates are high. Financing has changed. And a deal that looks great to an inexperienced investor can turn into an expensive lesson very quickly.
That's why we're spending TWO FULL DAYS covering the real-world fundamentals you need BEFORE you do your first deal.
No hype.
No "get rich quick."
No pretending every property is a deal or that every strategy works for everyone.
You'll learn:
- What a successful deal actually looks like in today's market
- The 5 basic exit strategies and how to choose the right one
- How real investors find off-market deals
- How to determine the ACTUAL value of a property before making an offer
- Hard money, DSCR loans, and conventional financing
- Subject-to, owner financing, and master leases
- Negotiation strategies that help create better deals
- The common mistakes new investors make—and how to avoid them
- How to get the help you need without paying a fortune for it
Your instructor, Vena Jones-Cox, has spent 35 years doing more than 2,000 real estate deals, including flips, rentals, lease/options, seller-financed deals, private loans, creative acquisitions, and off-market deals.
She's also been featured in Money Magazine, USA Today, Reader's Digest, and Gary Keller's bestseller The Millionaire Real Estate Investor.
This is your chance to spend two days building the knowledge base you need to evaluate opportunities with a lot more confidence—and avoid the mistakes that wipe out so many new investors.
The workshop will be recorded, and all registrants receive the recording.
Registration is just $47 for members AND non-members through September 24.
After September 24, it's $67.
And it's backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee or your money back.

Holiday Inn Cincinnati N - West Chester by IHG, 5800 Muhlhauser Rd, West Chester Township, OH 45069, USA, West Chester Township, OH, US(Please note: RSVPing on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To do that, you'll need to register on our website, HERE.)
If you can't fund it...THERE IS NO DEAL.
Most investors spend their time looking for properties.
Successful investors spend just as much time learning how to pay for them.
Because here's the truth...There are usually far more ways to fund a deal than most investors realize.
That's why we're turning our October meeting into The Money Room.
Real investors will present real deals.With photos.
Comps.
Repair estimates.
Purchase prices.And experienced lenders, private investors, creative finance experts, and other investors throughout the room will help structure funding solutions live.
Some deals may get funded.Every deal will teach you something.
Earlier in the evening, Vena Jones-Cox will moderate How to Fund Any Deal, covering conventional loans, DSCR financing, hard money, private money, seller financing, subject-to purchases, equity partnerships, and how experienced investors combine multiple funding sources when one loan isn't enough.
Whether you're looking for money, looking to lend money, or simply want to understand how deals actually come together, this will be one of the most practical meetings of the year.
And don't forget one of the biggest benefits of every REIAGC meeting...
Your next lender, private investor, partner, contractor, or buyer may already be sitting at your table.
