    Hey guys,

    Apologies for the short notice - since I'm heading to Geelong this Saturday and a couple of guys are also coming with me to meet our proud resident @Dave3214 I thought I'll start a meet up thread just so those who happen to be on the ground this Saturday can also join us for a property party! :D

    Venue: Panache Cafe & Creperie @ Geelong CBD
    Address: 214 Ryrie St, Geelong VIC 3220
    Date: Saturday 17th June
    Time: 3.30pm to 5.30pm approx (if you're not flying back on same day you're welcome to stay longer ;))
    My contact number in case you cannot spot us: 0410 291 536

    Interstate investors and locals all welcome! Any questions feel free to fire away!

    Cheers,
    David

    Hey, that sounds great to me. Panache is pretty good value really, they have a Blueberry Kosciusko for about $14 compared to the Pancake Parlour (which Geelong sadly doesn't have) that have them around $20.

    Hopefully the fog doesn't pay a visit like last weekend too! Cheers.

    We can only pray that it won't happen this weekend! Although it was foggy this morning in Sydney which caused a couple of cancellations. Fingers crossed :)

    Bugger! Would've been good to bring forward our Geelong discussion lol. Are you doing BA now Larry?

    Always searching for more deals so would be good to be on the ground and thought this would also be an opportunity to check out the work done on my IP so far :)

    Awesome Josh I'm sure we'll cross path alot on the day lol. Inspections usually finish around 3pm so I thought 3.30 would be a good start time for us :)

    I'm just a conservative investor. It's IP inspection I'll be doing and also meet up family and friends in Melbourne.

    Guys thanks for the great turn out yesterday - given it was very last minute we still had 9 people turned up and had a dominating presence inside the small cafe! :p

    Was great seeing @Dave3214 and @G TOWN - you guys are absolutely killing it with the extensive knowledge you have! We'll do another catch up again when I head over next time :)

    No worries fellas. It was great, was awesome meeting everyone, and just talking about all the various things that property investment involves. Great to meet you too GTown and David, Josh, Lisa and everyone else (as i said i have a mind like a sieve with names sorry!). My friend Andrew too had a great time, he's always been keen on property and he's probably never met too many others with similar interests before.

    Indeed....as our group wandered over to the Sushi and noodle bar, i think we made about 75% of the nightly takings! Was a beautiful day as well....not often we get such a nice sunny day in mid-winter in Geelong! Thanks everyone for coming :)

    Feel free to organize one when you've got the dates nailed down and get @Dave3214 involved. At this point lots of people looking at Geelong so I'm sure there'll always be people to chat on the ground :)

    Pity.it is the wrong date..I plan to be in Geelong over the weekend of 22 July.

    Scouting for more deals and looking through my build in Armstrong Creek...I am told my 250k product bought Sept 2016 is now valued around 360k...G-Town is awesome for capital gains...have another block being manufactured. I reckon the sub 350 product will go the way of the Dodo soon.....

    I love Geelong...love the alley way cafes in the city...bloody awesome. Plan to stay in Torquay...looking at more upscale beach properties now...changing my mix a bit...
