9:30 AM – SAY IT IN SIXTY SECONDS
Our trademarked speed-networking session, Say It In Sixty, is where our members and vendors have an opportunity to deliver an effective self-promotion commercial in 60 seconds. The purpose of the Say It In Sixty mini-presentation is for you to promote your deals and services, say what you’re looking for, like a painter or tri-plex, or anything else as long as it is beneficial to the membership.
Someone in this room could be worth $1000, $5000, or more to you. Make the right connection with someone who could lead you to a deal, a contractor, or referral. Bring plenty of business cards and be prepared to share what you are looking for.
Where else can you get in front of a room full of ambitious entrepreneurs such as landlords, Realtors, wholesalers, property managers, loan officers, and those just starting out? We all join together to network, make money, get the education, and hear what’s new in our local real estate market. But we also want to hear from you. Here are some ideas:
- Pass around business cards to get your name out
- Promote your real estate related product or service
- Pass around an opt-in form to collect to build your buyers list
- Share an “investor special” (a term derived from REIA meetings)
- Hand out flyers of a deal you have to flip or a rental available
10:00 AM – MAIN PRESENTATION
REIA brings local Fort Wayne investors, super-achievers, millionaires next door and high profile national experts to teach, train and explain key crucial areas of real estate investing, business and property management. Our members call the LIVE Main Events ‘pure gold’ and ‘the most valuable source for education and inspiration I’ve found’.
What a fantastic group of people. The Fort Wayne REIA has the greatest information you’re going to find as well as phenomenal networking. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just beginning you need to be here for the community, courses and resources. Plan to attend each month for a wealth of knowledge!

Saturday October 21st
Investor Mastermind Round-table with Q&A Session: Tough Questions, Real Answers.
Sometimes the lenses we look through are out of focus due to our limited experience or perceptions. Let our in-house panel of experts help you see and understand the best ways to succeed in real estate investing. REIA™ brings over 300 years combined experience to this special Investor Mastermind Q&A Round-table session for aspiring newbies and seasoned pros who want to take in to the next level.
Hear from the best in the area about what’s-working-now in our local market, how to run a profitable real estate investing business to make more money + avoid mistakes, insider strategies and proven fundamentals. Based on several pressing member questions and deal evaluations we’ll explain how to prepare for the Fort Wayne real estate market downturn, new rulings in small claims court and dealing with contractors. Then we’ll cover how local investors are getting creative terms on deals and the new joint venture opportunities in REIA.
What are the tough questions you have? Open mic question-answer session to follow. Ask your question ahead of time here to be sure we get to it!
11:30 AM – Q&A, GIFTS & GIVEAWAYS
At this time we have Question-and-Answer Session: ask your burning questions and get local up-to-date answers. Plus: Bring in your deals – our experts will help you structure them. Also, hear successful deals from our members.
NOON – MEETING AFTER THE MEETING
Yes, MAM. This is where the formal Saturday October 21st meeting ends and the “Meeting After the Meeting” (MAM) begins. REIA members and guests hang out in the parking lot talking and exchanging numbers, deals and ideas. Many also meet for lunch or coffee for relationship building. In our fast paced culture face-to-face networking is still the best way to accelerate your success, build accountability and a support group.
If you still have questions about the presentation or questions about anything else along your road to riches, get plugged into our rich community of events, such as our REIA Mastermind meetings, Landlord luncheon, Cashflow Games, and other local REIA meetups and support groups.
People pay lots of money for stuff like this!
Just wanted to say thanks for all the advice on the call. You guys were right on. I am looking forward to taking full advantage of all these Mastermind sessions. People pay lots of money for stuff like this so it’s a great opportunity. See you next month! Thomas Landis, Fort Wayne real estate investor

I am glad I made the drive!
I had the pleasure of meeting several knowledgeable and surprisingly helpful individuals… so much to learn from the meetings. I would highly recommend to any fellow Newbies to step out of your comfort zone and meet with people. So many people are willing to share such great information! …everyone was very welcoming; They have an outstanding REI Association in Fort Wayne. I would definitely make a trip like that again, and I am glad I made the drive! thanks, guys!

The Comfort Zone is the Failure Zone
Before I attended I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the club has been a great experience. Being new to real estate investing I am trying to learn as much as possible and Indiana REIA has been my most valuable asset. Some meetings can push me a little out of my comfort zone because it can be a little overwhelming at times with all of the new information but the comfort zone is the failure zone. Happy member of four years!
