Schedule

5:30 - 6:00 pm
Welcome Networking

Networking is a core component of our NET Profits Philosophy. As our Co-Founder Rodrigo always says: "You're only one conversation away from your next deal, so make sure you're having a lot of purposeful conversations about real estate!"

Come early and get to know the other Movers 'n Shakers in the room!

6:00 - 6:10 pm
AVLmeetup Community Update & Orders of Business

We've got a growing community of Movers 'n Shakers, and that means there's usually a lot going on! We try to dedicate no more than 10mins to making sure we shout out those members doing big things, and we also use this time to get our announcements out of the way.

It is a top priority of ours to get you home by 7:30, if you so choose! You can (and should!) stay to drink/network after the event.

6:10 - 6:30 pm
Market Update from the Ruiz Report

Education is another core component, NET Profits Philosophy, which is why every meetup starts with a unique take on the latest Ruiz Report from our Co-Host & Ruiz Report CEO, Zac Ruiz, that you can only get here.

6:30 - 7:15 pm
AVLmeetup's Signature Panel Discussion

Join us as we turn the tables for our last meetup. Hear what it's been like to host AVLmeetup since '22. Together we'll reflect on the lessons we've learned as hosts, celebrate the community that made it possible, and share takeaways on entrepreneurship and real estate that will last beyond this event.

Q&A With Speakers

This is your chance to get disproportionate value by participating! Ask away! Put our guests in the hot seat - you don't learn if you don't ask! You'll also be doing a solid for all the people listening to the recording who weren't able to attend but probably had a similar question.

7:30 - 🤷‍♂️ pm
Transaction Time!

It's hard to have any profits at all without Transactions, which brings us to the T of the NET Profits Philosophy.

Transaction Time is networking with intention to build each others business. If you haven't done a transaction with anyone in the room yet, now's your chance to put together a deal! Everyone will be primed and ready to go - get those creative deal making juices flowing and let us know when you close!

What Our Attendees Say

This is the first event like this that I've ever participated in, and I think it's ingenius. It's one form where people can come together casually, meet each other, talk, share ideas, and hopefully it's going to lead to everybody's succces.

I moved from Philadelphia, PA and started attending these meetings to learn the market and vibe. I will verify that these meeting are a HUGE value add! Thank you.

You learn, you find deals, and it's really good business practices are shared throughout the night.

Some of the people in the room are already 10-steps ahead of you, and 5 minutes of conversation might save you 5 months.
