Where Commercial
Real Estate Meets Community

CREID brings together investors, developers, and curious minds every month to share knowledge, analyze deals, and build real relationships in the Southwest Missouri market.

Next event: 2nd Thursday of the month · Sunshine Event Center · Springfield, MO

Why We Gather

"We are a group of like-minded people sharing knowledge about investing in commercial real estate to identify opportunities for community development and wealth creation and preservation in Southwest Missouri."

Whether you own a portfolio of assets or you're still analyzing your first deal, CREID is built for you. Our monthly events are part education, part networking, and entirely focused on the Southwest Missouri market.

The best real estate moves rarely happen in isolation. They happen when experienced operators talk openly, when someone breaks down a real deal in front of the room, and when a first-timer hears something that changes how they see this market. CREID is built on that exchange — monthly, in person, in Southwest Missouri.
