A while back, a handful of real estate investors in the Baltimore area knew there was a better way to network with fellow investors without feeling like we were being "taken" by some unscrupulous and predatory "real estate operators" in our area. We shared similar stories about what it was like to get started as investors and how it seemed we couldn't trust anyone to help us get quality investment information. We would attend investor meetings around town to gain knowledge, but we just felt like there was no existing investor group or club that was addressing our needs for quality, integrity, and honesty in dealing with beginning and experienced investors. We decided to change this situation and form a group of like-minded investors-and thus-we created the Mid-Atlantic Real Estate Investors Association.

MAREIA is a group of real estate investors from throughout YOUR AREA who meet on a regular basis to share information, leads and contacts, and to help each other learn more about investing. With a growing membership, the MAREIA is the association for brightest and most successful investors
