@Sean Vidrine - I will definitely be at the next meeting. So just to confirm, the next meeting is on Monday, February 24th?

@Richard Deberry

Thank you Richard for the pointers. Also, I know Oneil - he’s a good dude. He’s a valuable resource that I’m going to tap in to.

@James Dickens

I’m in Lake Charles and have connected with a couple guys from LAFAYETTE; one is a good friend and co-worker and the other is a co-worker. Have you purchased any properties yet? If so, what’s the greatest thing that you’ve taken away from your experience? I wish you the best and I’m sure I’ll be meeting up with you.

Thank you for the info John.  Like anything, the start is the most difficult steps in any process.

Hello,

My name is Steven and I'm from Southwest Louisiana. I am just getting started in REI and really want to focus buying rental properties. As all of you can imagine, the questions that are running through my mind are never ending. Where do I start; how do I find the right properties; what to look out for; what outlets do you use to ensure you don't pay too much for a property; what strategies should people in their mid-40's use to maximize the probability of success and profitability; etc., etc., etc... Although I am outside of my comfort zone and feel like an absolute tool (I'm lost and that's uncomfortable), my faith, drive, and want to achieve my family and life goals continues to motivate me to get outside of my comfort zone and push for continuous improvement.

@Eli Schwartz

Thank you for the information. I'm actively seeking REI group meet-ups and other networking mediums.

Hello everyone.  My name is Steven and I reside in Southwest Louisiana.  I am in the beginning stages of getting into the the process, strategies, etc., of entering the rental property ownership world and getting into the wholesale sector.  When I say the beginning stages, I mean I'm in the beginning stages of educating myself, networking with others, and looking for real valuable information that will aid me in making well informed and educated decisions.  So, all information, suggestions, advice, etc. is greatly appreciated.
