Michelle & Vin THE ROOM

About Michelle & Vin

Meet the two regional leaders behind The Room — built almost exactly opposite, on purpose.

Who's Running It

Michelle Bryan

Michelle Bryan

Regional Leader

Michelle Bryan is a seasoned real estate investor and capital raiser with over 450 completed transactions spanning residential rehabs, creative finance, and income-producing assets.

Vin Ochoa

Vin Ochoa

His focus is on creative deal structuring, private capital alignment, and building sustainable, execution-driven real estate businesses.

Wired in Opposite Directions

We run a lending company, an investment club and a rental portfolio together — and we are built almost exactly opposite. That turned out to be the advantage rather than the problem.

MichelleBuild it correctly, and build it to last.

She underwrites the deal, reads the documents nobody else reads, and has closed north of 450 transactions doing it exactly that way.

VinHow big, and how fast.

He finds the people, makes the introductions, and is usually three moves ahead of where the business actually is today.

Left alone, one of us would over-engineer it and the other would outrun the paperwork. Together we tend to land somewhere useful — and that is the same balance we have tried to build into this room. Big thinking, honest numbers, and nobody selling you a dream from the front.

It is why the meetup is free, why there is no pitch at the end, and why we would rather you walked out with one real relationship than ten business cards.

What Our Meetups Look Like

Real Conversations

Built around real relationships and real opportunities. Networking, creative finance education, deal breakdowns, private money conversations, guest speakers, and practical workshops.

What You'll Walk Out With

Stronger connections, better deal clarity, practical feedback. The goal isn't to sit in a room and take notes — it's to meet the right people and leave with next steps.

Who Should Come

Investors, wholesalers, agents, private money lenders, business owners and operators. Brand new or actively closing — this is built for people who want to take action.

Come stand in the room

We run a free in-person meetup in San Antonio. No pitch, no upsell.
