"I am new to investing, and after the first meeting with the REIA group, I now have the confidence to go through with a deal that I have been putting off for some time now. I now know that there are expert investors, and now friends, that I can go to for guidance along the way. That makes all the difference!"

Michael Whitfield

"The SC-REIA meetings seem to have something for just about anyone investing in real estate - from the novice just starting out to the long term pros. The networking involved may also help the investors to use their collective numbers to make beneficial changes to the investing environment as well. It is nice to see people who are potential competitors get together in a motivational, informative, real estate investment think tank."

Carol Conahan

"We are so glad we found such a valuable group of people that share our same interests and thinking. We've been looking to find something as great as this group for a long time! The meetings have proved to be the most valuable 3 hours we spend each month!"

Eden & Finley King

"SCREIA: A dynamic combination of knowledge, experience, motivation, networking and education dedicated to successful real estate investing."

Mike Childs

"REIA groups are the ABSOLUTE BEST organizations for networking, learning everything imaginable about real estate and finding help with most every problem you may encounter."

Pat Metzger

"I have been pursuing investing in real estate for a number of years on a very part time basis. It has been very part time only because of a lack of time. I have been doing this by myself and have been "lost" many times with out anyone that knows the business to discuss my concerns with. The networking is invaluable to me!" "I am very excited about the group. Not only are the speakers motivating and informative, just meeting other investors that are making it work is a big push for me. Listening to them share their experiences has helped me to realize that it is a learning process for everyone." "Since I have joined the SC-REIA group, it has given me the motivation to make some changes in my life that will allow me to make this a bigger priority and really get the ball rolling. I have no doubt that being a part of this group will take me to the next level!"

Lisa Terrill

"SCREIA could not have come to Charleston, SC at a better time for us. We brought our investment proposal to our second meeting and presented our "fears". The wealth of local information and networking was a tremendous boost to us. We had our first closing on two properties and will be closing on the other three the end of the month!!! If you are a real estate investor we highly recommend joining the association. We have a great leadership; the wealth of knowledge and experience gained is priceless. God Bless and Thanks again. We look forward to our meetings!"

Alexis Kong

"As a new investor, the REIA is invaluable for learning about the business. Knowing what others have done well and not so well helps me not to make the same mistakes. Also, networking and team building could not be easily done without this professional organization. To be a successful real estate investor takes multiple talents and specializations. Having real estate expertise and experience is important. More important, is to identify others who you can count on to be on your team. This is what SCREIA is all about!"

Jim Remillard

"SCREIA has given me another avenue for real estate investment education. It is great to learn directly from other's successes and challenges. The group is very encouraging and reminds me to go out there and make offers, structure creative deals and work to solve the other party's problems. A good deal leaves room for everyone to win!" "We just received a $98,000 profit with another $55,000 coming in the next couple weeks from a transaction that took a little over a year to complete. Now the only problem I have is how to limit taxes and where is the best place to reinvest all that money!"

Tom & Liz Roberts

"The first two meetings of the SCREIA have been very beneficial to me. At each meeting I had an opportunity to talk with 5 or 6 other investors and picked up at least three new ideas or tips that I can use in my real estate investing business. It is really interesting to me how many different ways there are to make money with real estate!"

Jane Hart

"I have been looking for this group a long time and can't wait to get to the meeting each month. I find the input from other members to be very beneficial to the wealth building process. Thanks a million for getting me involved. See you at the next meeting."



"The thing I have enjoyed most about the SCREIA meetings is the opportunity to network with other investors. I have been amazed at the amount of experience and knowledge among the attendees. The meetings have not only helped me to increase my knowledge of real estate investing but have also helped me to become more motivated when I hear about the various deals that are being done by some of the other attendees."

Karen Rapchick

"This group is a MUST for any new investor! As a first time investor, I was apprehensive about our first real estate deal. I was unsure if we were getting the best rate available (mortgage & insurance) for our proposal. The group encouraged us to forge ahead and that the rates were reasonable for investors. They also gave us creative ideas for structuring future deals. This is a great place for networking and learning from others with more experience."
