From High Profits to Higher Purpose: Why I'm Betting Big on Cincinnati Real Estate Investors Association

Updated: Aug 16

I’ve seen the highs of real estate investing—the cash flow, the equity, the scalability. But I’ve also seen the loneliness. The missed opportunities. The siloed wins. I built a thriving portfolio for Ray of Hope Realty Services, but something was missing.


I can recall sitting in the back of a Cincinnati REIA meetinelementary. I was a bit out of my element. Uncertain. Scribbling notes I barely understood. But I left those meetings sharper, bolder—and with contacts that would later change my career.


Now, I’m not just returning to the room—I’m leading the charge to build it.

Cincinnati REIA is a launchpad for serious investors. And it’s time you started surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals ready to make your dream deals come true.  


At REIA we get deals done. Join us!

The Problem: A Disconnect Between Legacy and Relevance

Let’s be honest: many real estate investor groups have become stale. The same landlords talking about the same buildings, gatekeeping instead of guiding. Many have forgotten that the next great real estate strategy might come from a single mom trying to fix her family’s financial future—or a 22-year-old ready to turn their first deal.


The Cincinnati market is evolving. Short-term rentals, assisted living, rent-to-own, land development. But too many would-be investors are out here guessing, struggling, failing quietly.


Cincinnati REIA is where we come when we are ready to win.


The Vision: A Real Estate Association That Builds Generational Wealth, Not Just Portfolios

Think of Cincinnati REIA as a home base for innovation and inclusion. It’s where:

  • Veteran investors mentor the next generation.

  • Newcomers get real answers, not upsells.

  • Deals get done—on the spot, off-market, and on your terms.

  • Shared housing, Section 8, wholesaling, creative financing, and affordable housing aren’t buzzwords. They’re tools we actually teach.


REIAGC is led by people who’ve done the work—not just talking heads and academics. 


The Call: If You’ve Ever Said, “There Should Be a Group for That…” — You Just Found It at Cincinnati Real Estate Investors Association


If you’ve been burned by bad partnerships or felt too new to speak up in a room, this is your invitation.

If you’ve figured out how to cashflow a 4-bedroom house with empathy and strategy, we need your expertise.


And if you’re somewhere in between—watching YouTube but too nervous to take your first step—this is your safety net.


We’re not just building housing options.  We’re assembling a movement.


Join Me


As the sitting President of Greater Cincinnati Real Estate Investors Association I enjoy hosting live meetups, virtual workshops, and deal room sessions.  My goal is to add 500 new members into Cincinnati REIA who are ready to build smart, ethical, and impactful real estate businesses.
