Making a BP Return... Experienced NOLA Area Investor

[Courtney Fricke]

Hey y'all, 

I have taken quite a break from these forums but have decided to step back into these by reintroducing myself. I got into the industry in 2014 with a property management job on Lake Ponchatrain in Slidell, north of New Orleans. I even had a wild hair to make an offer on the marina I was managing at the time. Thankfully it didn't get accepted. It wasn't long after a good bit of offers that my first deal got accepted - a short sale on a condo that I would up living in while renovating. That one deal sealed it for me. I was hooked! Since then, I have done hundreds of deals over the various strategies. These days, I am mostly a buy-and-hold investor in South Louisiana with a portfolio also in South Mississippi. My preference is Single Family, although I currently own some mobile homes, some parks, and some small multi-family as well as notes on land and houses. 

I founded a meetup on the Northshore that I have since passed on to another investor after running it for years. I am still very active in my local market as a host of the WWL Home Improvement each weekend. I also attend a lot of the investor meetups from New Orleans to Baton Rouge to South Mississippi from the Coast to Hattiesburg. I enjoy networking and talking shop. 

I specialize in creative financing, title issues, and stopping foreclosures. Holler if you have any questions. 

I know a lot has changed with BP over the years since I was first on here nearly a decade ago but am looking forward to getting back to these forums and helping folks and getting connected. 

See y'all at one of the next local meetups! Feel free to connect with me on here or on socials.
