November Augusta REIA Monthly Meeting (12 Nov 2026)

Thu, 12 Nov 2026 23:30:00 GMT

From Setback to Success: Aaron Chiles’ Real Estate Origin Story

Thursday, November 12, 2026
Doors Open: 6:30 PM | Meeting Starts: 7:00 PM
VFW in Evans
4290 Triangle Industrial Dr, Evans, GA 30809

Real estate success rarely follows a perfectly straight path.

This month, Augusta REIA welcomes Aaron Chiles, Professional Engineer, real estate investor, entrepreneur, and founder of Prepared Space LLC, for an honest discussion about his real estate origin story—from early setbacks and stepping away from investing to rebuilding and developing a growing rental business while maintaining a full-time professional career.

Starting Again

Aaron’s first experience with real estate investing did not end the way he had hoped. After experiencing significant setbacks early in his investing career, he stepped away from real estate for more than a decade.

In 2021, he made the decision to try again.

Rather than waiting until he had every answer, Aaron returned with a renewed mindset centered around intentional learning, better preparation, systems, and a willingness to take imperfect action.

Today, Aaron owns long-term and short-term rental properties and manages a portfolio of 12 short- and mid-term rentals throughout the Augusta–Aiken area, including properties operated on behalf of other investors.

What Aaron Will Share

During this meeting, Aaron will discuss:

How he originally entered real estate investing
The setbacks that caused him to step away
Why he ultimately decided to return
What he changed when starting over
Lessons learned from building his rental portfolio
Balancing real estate with a full-time engineering career
Using systems, technology, and automation to operate more efficiently
The importance of taking action instead of waiting for perfect conditions
How relationships and community have influenced his growth

About Aaron Chiles

Aaron Chiles is a registered Professional Engineer with more than 20 years of engineering experience and the founder of Prepared Space LLC.

Through Prepared Space, Aaron specializes in rental management, co-hosting, property setup, and guest-experience optimization. His approach combines practical investing experience with data-driven decision-making, technology, systems, and automation.

Aaron also hosts regular short- and mid-term rental investor meetups and is helping launch the CSRA STR Alliance, an initiative focused on education, responsible rental practices, and advocating for fair short-term rental regulations for local hosts and property owners.

Aaron and his wife, Octavia, have three children. Guided by his faith and his desire to build a lasting legacy for his family, Aaron views real estate as more than acquiring properties—it is an opportunity to create value, serve others, and build something meaningful.

Who Should Attend?

This meeting is especially valuable if you:

Want to begin investing but are hesitant to take the first step
Have experienced a setback or unsuccessful deal
Are balancing investing with a full-time career
Are interested in long-, mid-, or short-term rentals
Want to learn how another local investor built systems around his business
Want to connect with other investors throughout the CSRA

Come early for networking and stay after the presentation to meet fellow investors and continue the conversation.

Your first attempt does not have to determine the rest of your real estate journey.

December Augusta REIA Christmas Party (10 Dec 2026)

Thu, 10 Dec 2026 23:30:00 GMT

Augusta REIA Annual Christmas Party

Thursday, December 10, 2026
6:30 PM – 8:30 PM
Logan’s Roadhouse
269 Robert C Daniel Jr Pkwy, Augusta, GA 30909

Join Augusta REIA as we close out 2026 with our Annual Christmas Party!

After a year of meetings, education, deals, challenges, and new connections, December is our opportunity to come together in a relaxed setting and celebrate the people who make our local real estate community what it is.

This is a social event rather than our traditional monthly educational meeting.

What to Expect

Augusta REIA will be providing:

Appetizers
Giveaways and door prizes
Networking with fellow investors and local real estate professionals
Opportunities to share successes and lessons from 2026
Conversations about goals and plans for 2027

Whether you are an experienced investor, working toward your first deal, or simply looking to become more involved with the local real estate community, we encourage you to join us.

Celebrate the Year. Build Relationships. Prepare for the Next One.

Real estate investing is about more than properties and numbers. The relationships built through Augusta REIA can lead to partnerships, resources, education, referrals, and opportunities that extend well beyond a monthly meeting.

Come celebrate your wins, learn from the challenges, meet other investors, and start thinking about what you want to accomplish in 2027.

We look forward to ending the year together!
