Key Takeaways:
"Until someone's taught you, the cities aren't going to sit there and teach you all the ins and outs of their processes. That's what the REIA really has done -- it teaches us how to be successful in the environment that we're in." - Zach Weaver
"You need the education to be an engineer or a doctor or lawyer. The same is true in real estate. To be able to be successful here, you need an education. The sophisticated investor has a leg up on everybody else. They know the ins and outs, which can save them money, and the REIA really provides that, whether through the education side or the networking. I can't tell you how much money I've saved through the networking within our organization." - Zach Weaver
"When you join the REIA, all the contractors are members. You got your whole team there. When you join, you've got real estate agents in there. You've got accountants, you've got lawyers, and you got contractors, so a lot of that stuff's there. "- Zach Weaver
"The networking, it's huge. You go there to get the education at some point, you've kind of gotten all that education, and now you're transitioning more to the networking side of the people you meet, and deals just flow from knowing people that are in the business and that are doing deals and the more you're participating, you're active, you're seen as a leader." - Zach Weaver
