The more experienced will be more interested in the negotiations and directing the activities of the group, and making big deals. If they are divided though, nobody wins. If all the meetings involve all the members, experienced people may find them too "elementary" and not worth their time, and it may also be too disorganized to get anything done. That is why there should be a leadership comitee of those who wish to take a more active role. The less experienced members will be able to see how the experienced guys work and learn as they go through the process of negotiating and buying properties as a group. I think what you are saying is right on Roshan, this should be a place where everyone benefits both financially and intellectually.

That's it Max. All the segments whether it's learning, first time investing or big deals investing all are equally important. Members should benifit financially and intellectually, as they progress, they go from a learning group to an investing group.
Not all the members can come to a table at one time. As proposed. If I have 20 members under me, I become the contact point. If you have 40, you become the contact point....so on and so forth. When someone below you wants to sound a project, he contacts you and you sound the other team leaders in the community. If all the members need to come together for a launch presentation, we book a venue and we share the costs, which should not be much.
To explain to other members who are not aware of the term " team leader " . There are no special pre equisites for a team leader. If one can gather members under him, he becomes a team leader. That team leader cordinates with the person who introduced him and they become a bigger group. It will be like a pyramid.
You are right. Each one's interest will be different. Members learn as they network and progress to different groups.
Sometime, somewhere we can have a meeting with all members so that we put a name to a face. This will not give us a chance not only to meet but also build team work. A We could play a real estate tutorial movie, have a speaker talk on the market or a banker to talk on different mortgages, which will get members interested in the benifits of joining the group. I know how much one can benifit from a real estate audio visual movies. I feel it's a fantastic tool when you get people under one roof. Sorry, if I repeat the same things, but I have to do it when i need to get the point across to other members who are not convinced.
Audio / visual movies play an important part in development. It gives you tips and education on how the big guys play. For eg, Wouldn't you like to see a Donald Trump visual where he would give you tips on investing. I would love to. Everyday is a learning process. You learn a lot when you see / hear real estate gurus present.
I did mention at the meeting that a draft was ready to send out. Decided to change the draft which I had prepared, I am now changing it to a FAQ format, so that it is in small bits and pieces instead of one big email which will cover all what we have discussed and the questions a member would typically ask.
Will be in touch.
