Southern California WSO Real Estate Networking/Meetup Group

Does this exist (within the WSO community) in the region (LA, South Bay, OC)? If not, are there any in the area who would like to join me in getting this started?

**Update** - plans are being made for a meetup, see inside the thread for details

Good to see that there's interest.

As of now, lets plan to have this next Thursday (July 30th). In terms of location, what area is most convenient for each person?

Suggested Locations: Santa Monica, Century City, West Hollywood, Downtown.

Personally, Downtown is a hike for me when factoring in traffic but I'm trying to incorporate preferences. Santa Monica or Century City are my choices.

 

I'm interested too. Although I won't be in SC during July, it would be cool to see such events happen for the WSO community in the LA-area for professionals in the IB industry and so on.

 

I hope the meet up went well, I couldn't make it but I'll try next time.

Urban Land Institute's Young Leader Group is having a summer social on 08/11/2015 in Santa Monica. It's a good opportunity to network if any of you in Los Angeles are interested.
