About REIA

REIA, the Real Estate Investors Association of Washington, is a professional real estate investors association managed by volunteers. REIA was created and is managed by real estate investors for real estate investors for the benefit of fellow investors, investor-friendly businesses and the greater real estate investing industry and community as a whole..

Since our inception in 2007, REIA has consistently provided quality education for all levels of investors, networking that is second to none and the business teams to successfully build or grow your real estate investing business. Our educational offerings are market and industry relevant toward the success of REIA Members and Guests without the hype and hard sell found at most associations.

REIA welcomes real estate investors of all experience and education levels and the many businesses our always growing businesses need to thrive.    

The Volunteers that manage REIA, including REIA Officers, are not in their positions for their personal gain or as a gateway to sell a product or service to the REIA Membership. Those who work in the real estate industry and volunteer for REIA are "off duty" from their day jobs in their implementation of their duties for REIA; REIA volunteers are here to benefit REIA Members, without hidden agendas or their "day jobs" as their motivations. REIA is an Association in business simply for the love of real estate investing, with both integrity and ethics firmly in hand.  

REIA caters to many investor interests and experience levels. The focus of the individual real estate investors that make up the REIA Membership is varied. Focuses include assignments, wholesaling, flips, lease / options, rental arbitrage, landlording, rehabs, abandoned properties, probates, foreclosure auctions, REOs, land, single family, development, mobile homes, mobile home parks, self storage, multi-family properties of all sizes, commercial properties and more along with business professionals to support our diverse real estate investing interests.  

REIA typically hosts nearly 80 networking and educational events every year with a combination of in-person and online events. For general information on REIA events visit the Meetings & Classes page on this website; for current meeting and class schedules visit the REIA Calendar of Events.
