Hey hey hey BiggerPocketeers!
We hosted our first event in 2019 - and it was a rousing success!!! You wanted another, and here we are!
Join us in New Orleans, October 4-5, 2021. You’ll learn about many areas of real estate investing, take a deep dive into the ever-changing economy, get inspired by real estate success stories, and acquire skills to help you achieve financial freedom. All of this will happen alongside other like-minded investors who are pursuing the same goals and chasing the same dreams as you!
Logistics to Know
When: October 4-5, 2021 Where: The fun is happening at The Sheraton Hotel New Orleans Who: You and 1,500 other investors from across the country!
@Mindy Jensen Booked in and so excited! Convinced my spouse to come and participate and she wanted to attend mostly different conferences than me so we’ll get twice as much knowledge! Woot!! Staying at the Sheraton.
This looks awesome. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend. Have you guys considered a "not-in-person" option where we could pay a set fee to either live or on a recorded feed for a set fee? I'd love to be able to learn, even if it means that I can't really network with people the way I'd like.

Hi Dennis!
There is a networking event Monday at the Sheraton and will be like a mini “bar crawl” throughout the vendor halls! There will be lots of festive bites and drinks to showcase some New Orleans favorites.
The Tuesday event will be a parade (marching band and all!) from the Live Podcast Recording down to Bourbon Street. We’re super excited for this!

Hi Fred - Unfortunately, the conference does not have a hybrid element. We believe one of the biggest values of the conference is the networking, which is more easily done in-person.
But of course, there’s lot of other virtual learning opportunities from BiggerPockets!

@Shane Jeanfreau I second that! Jazz Fest is the most incredible festival that you will ever attend. People actyally move to New Orleans specifically because of it. They buy houses in the adjacent neighborhood because of it. We did that and immerse ourselves in it for 2 weeks every year.

@Monica Soyemi Maybe you can room share with someone from the conference. I used to do that to save on expensive rooms. It's also a great way to connect with other investors!

I have free nights at any Marriott or Sheraton right now. So its not costing me anything to stay but the Sheraton doesn't have a pool. I booked at the JW Marriott right next door for that reason.
