Colorado Couple Spotted Need For Real Estate Investors Club

The Western Slope Real Estate Investors (WSREI) founders Mandy and David Vindiola started investing in real estate in the Grand Junction area of Colorado in 2000.

Like many new investors, Mandy and David felt nervous and scared to make that first step. Many of the books they read and seminars they attended suggested that they needed to get involved with a local real estate investment group to network with others, share resources and learn. Unfortunately the closest real estate investment group was in the Denver area and the couple couldn’t always get to mid-week meetings and seminars. As the years past, Mandy and David waited and hoped that someone would start a real estate investment group.

Then in 2004 while working on their final project for their Masters of Business Administration degrees Mandy and David decided that they should start their own group. Two years in the making, Mandy and David launched Western Slope Real Estate Investors of Colorado in the spring of 2006.

Avid outdoor enthusiasts, Mandy and David enjoy all types of activities and compete in races and triathlons. The couple enjoy pushing themselves both physically and in their business. Mandy and David spend a lot of time outside their comfort zone and enjoy learning from others. Mandy and David have seen the benefit of networking, education and collaboration in their real estate investment business and invite new members to share in their vision.

Meetings of the Western Slope Real Estate Investors (WSREI) club are held the second Wednesday of each month at 6:30p.m. at The Bray Education Center, located at 7th and Belford Ave. near downtown Grand Junction.
