Hey everyone! I’m new to the game and I’m looking for anyone that lives/invests in the Lafayette, Louisiana area.

Welcome - you'll find that there is a decent amount of people that invest in Louisiana here (more so Baton Rouge and New Orleans) and there are a few of us that invest in the Lafayette area. Not a huge lafayette investor presence on the forum but there's some really helpful people that do. There's also a club that meets every so often in Lafayette (I have not made it yet due to working offshore)

What are you interested in doing in Lafayette? MFH? SFH? Rehabs?

 Thanks for the welcome! I was mainly wondering if there were meetups around this area. I’m probably going to get started with a small rehab.

Thanks for the mention @Craig Boutte!

Welcome to BP Bryce! We have a meetup happening tomorrow night in Lafayette, LA.

I can only share a link to the networking area of BP: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

You can make some connections with local investors there.

Wish you could've made it. If you join the group at the meetup site, you will always get notifications for future meetings. There is no charge to join. They almost always happen on the 3rd Tuesday of the month.
