See one house the week it was bought, one in the middle of the rehab, and one finished, with the real numbers on all three. Five hours in the field with a pro acquisitions and rehab team. Think of it as a mobile mastermind.
$200 per person · Small group · Lunch included
We cap every walk at 20 investors. That way you can get into every room, ask the questions you actually have, and leave knowing the other investors in the group, not just the houses. No pitch, no upsell. Just houses, numbers, and people.
Most real estate education happens in a room with a projector, or on a Zoom call. Those are fine places to learn a formula. They are terrible places to learn what a load bearing wall looks like, or why a roof line makes a contractor quote jump four thousand dollars, or what separates a job site that is under control from one that is bleeding money.
So we go to the houses instead.
This is hands on, practical, and interactive. You walk the properties, you ask questions, you see the work in progress, and you watch how a working team evaluates a house from acquisition through rehab to finished home.
Nick Thiele and Kathe Gerhardt of Next Chapter Home host every walk. Between them they have walked more than 3,000 properties and completed more than 350 full interior remodels, and they have been teaching investors in the field together since 2025.
Kathe has walked more than 3,000 properties for investors in the St. Louis market and helped investors make more than 300 purchases. She is a licensed, investor-friendly Missouri agent, and she is the one showing you what a pro acquisitions team looks for before anybody writes an offer. She got her start house hacking for cash flow, and now she is passionate about helping other investors build the confidence to invest, too.
“I know exactly what it feels like to walk into a property with little to no prior experience or guidance. I had to learn the hard way, and I want others to know they have a community supporting them through their investing journey. There is no education quite like it!”
Nick has personally completed more than 350 full interior remodels and bought and flipped more than 60 houses of his own. He walks you through what a job site is supposed to look like, how a renovation actually progresses, and where the money goes.
“Once upon a time, I was the guy just trying to figure it out, and there were tons of people around willing to help me get there. Now it’s my turn to be one of those people to help the next set of investors reach their goals.”
Together they will help you with the next chapter of your investor journey.
“We walked five properties and had in depth discussions on each individual property, ranging from rehab budgets, BRRR vs fix/flip, estimating ARV’s… Kathe has this set up for you to walk away with a great network of other REI’s and the confidence to walk any property and begin to run numbers.”
Colm A.
“Kathe was so welcoming, kind, and patient. She instantly made everyone feel comfortable, no matter their experience level… As someone just getting started in real estate, I truly appreciated how clearly she explained everything.”
Emily M.
“I’ve attended countless masterclasses, trainings, seminars… and I have NEVER left a class feeling as empowered as I felt yesterday. I acquired some information that boosted my confidence, shifted my thoughts and will soon CHANGE MY LIFE!… I’m so grateful for all my new found FRIENDS.”
Mollie T.
“Especially great for new investors to help train your eye on what to look for when evaluating property condition and scope of work… It was a great way to grow my network with other investors.”
Steve N.
“Spotted issues I would have missed, saving me from a $40,000 foundation repair.”

We start with a meet and greet and a quick introduction from everyone, then we get to work. Three properties, three stages, five hours.
We start with a recently purchased property in cleanout or early demo phase, and we walk it outside first, focusing on what a pro acquisitions team looks for when evaluating a potential purchase.
Next we visit a property midway through renovation, which gives you a real world look at the rehab process while the work is still open and visible.
We break at noon for lunch, hosted by Casey Samuels of FasterFunds Lending, then we finish at a completed Next Chapter Home. You see what the finished product looks like and how a thoughtful renovation transforms a property.
Practical resources to keep you investing after the walk: the vendors, calculators, and numbers we use ourselves. We hand these out at the last stop so you are not carrying paper around all day.
Contractors, inspectors, title companies, and other vendors St. Louis investors in the club actually use.
FasterFunds Lending prequalification info and how to get an application moving, so funding is not the thing that slows down your next deal.
The full calendar and how the club works. Monthly meetups, the Wednesday Live calls, and the next property walks.
The rehab calculator and deal worksheets for pricing out a renovation and running your numbers before you commit to an offer.
The real numbers on all three homes we walked that day. Written down, so you can go back through them later.
A Buyers Club shirt. Yours at the first stop.
Nine in the morning until two in the afternoon. Five hours, three properties, one lunch.
We cap every walk at 20 investors. Small on purpose, so everybody can see, hear, and ask questions at every stop.
Fourth Thursday of every month, with two exceptions. There is no walk in November, and the December walk moves to Thursday, December 3.
Properties change every month. You will be looped into a group text with the meeting point and all three addresses 48 hours before the walk.
We move between three properties across the greater St. Louis area, so plan on driving between stops. Carpooling is a good idea and a good way to meet the people you are walking with. Reply to the group text if you have a seat to offer or want one.
Closed toe shoes. These are working properties and job sites. Dress for walking through a house with the floors up.
Covers all three properties, lunch, your swag, and the resource folder.
Ticket sales close 48 hours before each walk so we can finalize the lunch count and get the addresses out.
Plans change? Get a full refund if you cancel at least 72 hours before your walk. After that, your seat is locked in.
Every investor in the St. Louis metro is welcome on a property walk. The people who get the most out of it are usually:
No. Property walks are open to everyone. If you have not been to a meetup yet, your first one is free and they run the third Thursday of every month.
No. The walks are built for investors who are brand new or a few deals in. Nick and Kathe explain everything in plain English, and no question is too basic.
No. Nobody is selling coaching, deals, or loans. The day is education, lunch, and networking.
One day of walking properties around town, lunch, t-shirt, and the resource folder with great connections to vendors and other resources.
Somewhere in the St Louis metropolitan area. You will be looped into a group text 48 hours before the walk with the meeting point and all three addresses, once registration closes. All properties we visit are within 15-20 minutes of each other.
Yes. Registration is per person, so book a spot for each of you.
Yes. We use active projects that are being rehabbed, so every walk is a different set of houses at a different point in the process.
We conduct property walks monthly. The timing is a little bit different each month so check out the schedule of Upcoming Walks.
Cancel at least 72 hours before your walk and we will give you a full refund. After that, your seat is locked in and refunds are not available.
From finding the deal, to understanding the rehab, to seeing the finished product.
