About us
Welcome to one of Charlotte’s largest and fastest growing real estate networking clubs!
The North Carolina Real Estate Investor's Association is a Real Estate Investor Association (REIA) dedicated to providing members with:
• Wholesale Real Estate Opportunities
• No Money No Credit Financing Opportunities
• A Network of Local Buyers, Sellers, Service Providers, & Partners
• Best-in-class Local Market Updates, Training, and Mentoring
We currently have thousands of members with chapters in Raleigh, Fayetteville, Wilmington and Charlotte. Our focus is LOCAL North Carolina real estate investing strategies and growing a community of knowledgeable investors.
We focus on promoting our own members and sharing the extensive expertise and knowledge found in our group. Many of our current members have been around for many years and continue to offer advice and support to new investors. There’s a lot of deal pitching that goes on in our meetings. In addition, we share recommendations for everything a new or old investor might need including: electricians, painters, plumbers, septic installers, roofers, builders, contractors, investor friendly realtors, educators, foundation companies, etc.
Our mission is to educate our members and share as much information as we can to help them become successful in their real estate investors by providing the tools for learning and support they need to start and grow their business.
We are a North Carolina real estate association and we only post ‘deals’ and ‘opportunities’ that are related to North Carolina real estate. The discussion board is highly moderated in that NO deals get posted that don’t directly have a relationship to real estate investing in North Carolina. That is a huge differentiator for us. Most members really appreciate not having their email clogged with spam about swamp land in Florida.
Bottom line is we operate a GREAT club and we hope you’ll consider joining.

NCREIA Online Seminar: How to Die Right as a Real Estate Investor
·OnlineOnline[NOTE: RSVPing here does NOT get you a link: you’ll need to register at our website, HERE, https://reia.app/1156Y15T2 to do that.]
What happens to your portfolio if you don’t come home tonight?
It’s not a pleasant question.But it’s one every real estate investor needs to answer.
Most investors spend years building rentals, notes, partnerships, LLCs, seller-financed deals, options, and other assets. Yet in many cases, only one person truly understands how everything works.What happens if you’re suddenly unable to run the business?
Who collects rents?
Who pays bills?
Who handles lenders, partners, rehabs, contracts, and deadlines?
And if you’re gone, will your family know what to do?In this powerful online workshop, Robert Mohon will show you how to protect your assets, income, family, and legacy by creating a practical plan for both disability and death.
You’ll learn how to identify risks, organize critical information, choose the right decision-makers, and build an investor operating system your family can actually follow.
This isn’t just estate planning.
It’s business continuity planning for real estate investors.The workshop will be recorded and all registrants will receive the recording, so register even if you can’t attend live.
Again, RSVPing here on meetup does NOT get you your link! Go HERE https://reia.app/1156Y15T2 for full details and to register.
