A Word from Our Members...

"I have been a member of MnREIA since 2021. I heard about this group through my partner, Nene Matey-Keke. I like the networking and training I receive through MnREIA and learning different real estate investing strategies. I enjoy building relationships with other members and learning about real estate investing. I would like to learn more about wholesaling and buying properties subject to. Learning how to calculate estimates for rehab repairs and ARV has helped me become a successful real estate investor. If you’re serious about investing in real estate, then you have to become a member of the best association with all the resources you need."

"I looked up my local REIA group to find a local resource for continuing to learn about real estate investing after kicking off my first STR in Florida. I like the relevant topics although I heavily focused on local investing and long-term rentals which are not relevant to me yet. I appreciate the recordings of meetings I'm not able to attend in person, which have been most of the summer. I would love more training in evaluating properties as the market continues to shift, making offers and how to be creative, creative borrowing and how to ensure the best deal. I appreciated learning about land trusts which are all the buzzes."

"I heard about MnREIA from Hmong Wealth Builders online. I like the fact that MnREIA is very open, and they make you feel very welcome. I have learned about ARV and other abbreviations people use when investing since joining MnREIA. I appreciate that the people of MnREIA are very open-minded, and they share a lot of their good and bad experiences. I would appreciate more training on getting out of my comfort zone and taking some risks. I finally learned what wholesalers do and how they find properties. Some tips I would share with new investors would be: if the numbers are right, invest. Don’t wait for a good investment, go look for one. Networking makes life easier when looking for help. Keep coming to MnREIA even though (some of) the training is the same every month, you’ll grow faster."

"I took a course called "The Flipping Formula". They recommended that I look up a local REIA to find investors who also wholesale. I went to the internet and found MnREIA. The rest is history. I like the format of the meetings, the market update, the haves and wants, as well as the monthly speakers. I find it very helpful that a diverse set of speakers is presented as I believe there is no one speaker who is best for everyone. I like that there really are others like me in this business! I also learned that there is more than one way to invest in real estate. If I keep learning and meeting new people, I plan to stay! Although life and medical problems have kept me too busy to have had any successes yet, I have learned some valuable topics like: Multiple offers, Creative Financing, and Tony Youngs "Hidden Market." I have only two tips, join and come to the meetings. Okay, a third one also, talk to people at the meetings! Also, it wouldn't hurt you to say thanks to Mike now and then because he does a lot of work to make MnREIA so worthwhile!"

"Listen, there are a lot of classes and gurus that ask for thousands of dollars for memberships. We tried some of them as well. MNREIA is THE BEST; you get so much networking and classes, and monthly membership is affordable to EVERYBODY. If you are a beginner: there is no better place to start. If you cannot make enough to cover the small cost of a MNREIA membership from real estate, then real estate is not for you. In this case at least you are not going to lose thousands of dollars to figure it out.

"Through the education I have received through MnREIA I have successfully rehabbed and sold (all in less than 2 weeks!) several investment properties. I am now buying and holding properties, selling them on lease options. I love MnREIA and invite everyone I know and meet!"

Webster, MN
MnREIA Member Since 2010

"I joined MnREIA in 2015 because it was highly advised by my mentor at Advanced Real Estate Education. My goals when I joined were to acquire properties to rehab and to invest in other real estate investors projects and now my goals are to basically acquire properties to fix and flips and retire by 2025. I have paid for the following training outside of MnREIA - Advanced Real Estate Education totaling $77,000.00. I continue to be a part of MnREIA because I can continue to stay educated in the field of real estate. The best advice I can give to someone who isn’t ready to join as a member is to stay in touch with the person that invited you and see if what you have to offer can make yourself and the organization stronger. MnREIA is valuable to me because I can learn from others and now know where I can turn for the quality assistance, I need to complete my projects."

"We became members just after live meetings resumed in February 2021. We heard about MnREIA several years before that when Bill was a licensed realtor. In 2021, we connected with a member who encouraged us to be a part of the group to promote me (Valerie) as a mortgage loan officer. We love the education, resources, leadership, and connections we have made with other investors through MnREIA. Mike’s market analysis is very informative, and we have had many opportunities to use and that share information. We are proud members of MnREIA and use our membership for credibility when talking to buyers and sellers. If you are on the fence about joining MnREIA, know that MnREIA is a one-stop shop for all the tools you need to be successful in real estate investing."

"I first heard about MnREIA by googling it. I enjoy attending structured events. I have learned a lot about subject to, lease options, and rent to own. The content that is taught, the training, and the networking keep me coming back. I would love more in-depth training on marketing tactics, wholesaling, and writing subject to offers. Learning how to find deals in The Hidden Market with Tony Youngs has helped me to become a successful real estate investor. Advice I would give to someone that is on the fence about joining MnREIA……you need to try it out for a year, get involved, and be part of this great community!"

September 2026 Main Meeting:
Estimating Repairs Quickly & Accurately with Mike Jacka!

Learn about Repair Estimating with MnREIA's President & Founder, Mike Jacka!

Making offers is the only way to buy properties. However, making the right offers is the only way to make money. At this training we will Learn How To Use this Simple Strategy to Quickly and Accurately Estimate Repairs in 15-20 Minutes or Less.

Unless you know how to accurately estimate repair costs, you can’t make smart offers. And when you know how to do it FAST, you’ll save valuable time, make more offers, and get more deals. If you're going to make good offers, you'd better get good at Estimating Repair Costs. The accuracy of your equations, the profit in your deals, and the cost benefit of taking on a project all hinge on your ability to Estimate Repairs Quickly and Accurately.

At this meeting, you will learn:
  • Major Components
  • Minor or Miscellaneous Components
  • How to assign values to each category 
  • And the individual items within the categories

The process is simple, once you understand how to break it down into what you need to look at and what you don't need to spend much time inspecting.

Mike will walk you step by step through his process of looking at an making an initial repair estimate on a potential deal, and show you how he does this in 15-20 minutes so you can quickly calculate your MAO (Maximum Allowable Offer) for cash deals.
