The Two Real Estate Investor Conferences That Are Worth Attending
Whether you're a seasoned real estate investor or new to the industry you will want to make sure you are constantly educating yourself. The real estate industry is continuously evolving and these annual conferences will keep you up-to-date with current events, new technologies and market trends. With hundreds of real estate conferences offered each year, it can be hard to decide which conferences are worth spending your time and money. If you can only attend two conferences all year, these are the two I recommend.
Information Management Network (IMN)
The first one is the Single Family Rental Investment Forum hosted by IMN. This conference takes places twice a year, once in Scottsdale, Arizona and the other in Miami, Florida. During the 2.5 days, several presentations will discuss the latest industry topics, there will be Q&A sessions with a panel of expert speakers, small group meetings will be available for business owners and of course, much more. Some of the key market participants in the past have been Property Brokers, Fix and Flippers, Rating Agencies, Note Buyers, ABS & REIT Investors, Single Family Owners, and Operators.
If you’re an experienced investor and do big business, have high volume, a large team, and complete several deals per month, then this conference is where you should be. Anyone who is anyone in the world of real estate will be in attendance. Given the nature of this conference, the admission tickets come at a high price point, a few thousand dollars. If you specialize or are an expert in a particular real estate investing topic, you can propose to be a guest speaker. If the organization grants you a speaking role, you may get your ticket comped. If you have valuable content to share, this option is worth pursuing.
Think Realty Conference
The second conference recommendation is the Think Realty Conference, which is perfect for those starting out or relatively new to real estate investing. Each year, the team at Think Realty hosts four to five conferences. Content that is shared is known to be extremely valuable and informative. The speakers have a wealth of industry knowledge under their belts, the panel of guests are insightful, and the live presentations are nothing short of brilliant. This is not the kind of conference that tries to push products and services on the attendees.
Although services are offered, they surely aren’t the focal point here. Other highlights are the networking opportunities and affordability of the tickets. It’s not very expensive to attend the event and registration can be done online.
Just to reiterate, if you’re looking to stay abreast of real estate industry trends and the latest news, network with other investors, and grow your business, the IMN and the Think Realty Conferences make stellar options.
