California Real Estate Investment Associations

LAC-REIA is one of California's oldest and largest real estate investor groups, founded in 1996. With chapters spanning Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties, LAC-REIA provides investors with education on California's complex landlord-tenant laws, creative acquisition strategies, and deal sharing in one of the world's most sought-after real estate markets.

NorCalREIA serves investors across Northern California, with meetings in Sacramento, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Fresno. The association provides education on California landlord-tenant law, rent control compliance, and investment strategies for NorCal markets ranging from Sacramento's value plays to the Bay Area's high-appreciation opportunities.

OCREIA connects real estate investors throughout Orange County, one of Southern California's most competitive and rewarding markets. Monthly meetings cover buy-and-hold strategies, fix-and-flip opportunities, short-term rentals, and creative financing for the OC market. Members include new investors, experienced landlords, and real estate professionals from Anaheim to San Clemente.

SJREI connects real estate investors throughout Silicon Valley and the South Bay. Meeting in downtown San Jose, the club provides education on investing in one of America's most expensive real estate markets — including creative acquisition strategies, out-of-state investing for Bay Area investors, and local multifamily opportunities.

SDCIA has been San Diego's premier real estate investor organization for decades. Meeting monthly in Mission Valley, SDCIA focuses on creative financing strategies — subject-to deals, seller financing, lease options, and other approaches — that allow investors to acquire properties in San Diego's high-priced market. The group welcomes investors at all levels.

East Bay REIA connects investors throughout Alameda and Contra Costa counties. Oakland, Berkeley, Fremont, and the surrounding East Bay offer unique investment dynamics — strong rent appreciation, diverse housing stock, and some of California's most complex local rent control ordinances. Monthly meetings provide education, deal sharing, and legal updates for East Bay landlords and investors.

Serving the investment community in the San Fernando Valley — Burbank, Glendale, North Hollywood, Encino, and surrounding communities. The Valley's diverse multifamily housing stock, strong rental demand from LA commuters, and active fix-and-flip market make it one of California's most dynamic investment areas. Monthly meetings cover Valley-specific market trends, rent stabilization compliance, and investment strategy.

SacREIA serves Sacramento-area investors with monthly meetings covering the Central Valley's strong rental fundamentals. Sacramento's combination of state government employment, healthcare sector growth, and Bay Area price refugees creates steady investment demand. SacREIA members share deals, financing sources, and market intelligence for investors throughout the Sacramento region.

BAWB serves real estate investors in the North Bay — Marin, Sonoma, and Napa counties. Monthly meetings in Corte Madera cover investment strategies relevant to the Bay Area's premium market, including fix-and-flip, vacation rentals, and creative financing for high-priced properties. BAWB also frequently presents out-of-state investment opportunities for Bay Area investors.

Connecting investors in the Coachella Valley — Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and the Inland Empire's desert communities. The Coachella Valley's short-term rental market, driven by tourism and events like Coachella Festival and Stagecoach, creates unique investment opportunities. Monthly meetings focus on STR strategies, buy-and-hold investing, and the local market's seasonal dynamics.
