5 Real Estate Investment Club Success Stories [2024]
Real estate investment clubs are non-profit organizations where investors join together to buy real estate properties and make joint investments.
Real Estate Investment clubs can work on 2 models: free to join for all or charge an annual fee, which would be less than a few hundred dollars. Every Real Estate Investment club should offer knowledge about different investment practices, how to advertise a service or a business, networking with fellow professionals in the real estate industry, etc.
To start a real estate club, you should consider the following points:
- Conduct market research and reach out to people who already have expertise in this field
- Attend meetings and find out how other clubs operate.
- Familiarize yourself with real estate laws and current market conditions.
- Once you decide your mission, start recruiting people and promoting your club
Investing in real estate can be a big step. Hence, it is always beneficial to form a partnership and find the best deal. Ideally, a club may charge between $50 to $150 per year.
Here are some real life success stories of starting a real estate investment club:

Rachel Hernandez, founder of Adventures in Mobile Homes, came up with the idea for her business after becoming burnt-out as a landlord and deciding to sell her real estate portfolio.

Her first sale was a 2 bedroom, 1 bath mobile home that she bought for $3,600 and sold for $10,000, receiving her initial investment back within the first year. Since then, Rachel has built a successful business with a steady stream of passive income and plans to expand by buying land and moving mobile homes onto it.
