A place to share thoughts about investing in real estate in St. Louis. Sole purpose is as a repository of information presented, hopefully, in a searchable form, not purporting to promote any agenda beyond that, as there are other organizations aptly addressing such (more ambitious) interests. Some of them are:

The Rehabber's Club, an excellent group, run by real estate agent Marti Frumhoff, has a slick website at http://www.rehabbersclub.org/, and a very informative listserve at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rehabbersclub/.

St. Louis Real Estate Investors Association: an organization with a long history of gathering local investors, has a web site at http://www.stlreia.com/.

CREN: To educate investors about real estate investing and provide a "safe" network of like minded people. Contact: Rob Hood <drunkanmonk@yahoo.com>.

St. Louis Area Housing Providers Association: www.stlahpa.org web site does not work; address is: PO Box 22183, stl 63116; a newsletter dated October, 2004 mentions monthly meetings at Harris-Stowe.

RenovateSTL.com: The mission of renovateSTL.com is to promote neighborhood revitalization through the renovation and restoration of St. Louis' unique building stock. It is my goal to provide clear, concise information specifically oriented towards people who are in-process, or looking to renovate a building in the City of St. Louis. I hope to inform, educate, inspire, and support people in all phases of renovation from purchasing property to occupancy and maintenance.
