How's everyone doing? Although this is not my first post, I've never introduced myself as an member. My name is Malcolm and I'm located in Laplace Louisiana. It's about 20 miles from New Orleans. I've been doing research on real estate for about a year now. With all the studying I've been doing I think it's time for me to take the next step. I was introduced to real estate by my father. He currently has a portfolio of at least 20 properties give or take. It seems like a great way to jumpstart other opportunities in life and become financially Independent at some point in life. What are some tips or advice that you all have for a 20 year old newbie? I'm open to hearing anything and everything. My life goal is to put my family in a position to be financially successful multiple generations from now. Thanks for taking your time to read this.

Kyle Scofield Thank for the response. Hopefully analyzing a deal each day will help me understand my market better & also help me tell the difference from good and bad deals. Also, do you know what's the best way to go about figuring out how much I should offer on a property?

How's everyone doing? Today I want to start analyzing deals each day before I actually purchase my first property. What is the correct way to analyze a buy and hold and how do I go about doing it? Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the replys everyone. Greatly appreciated.

How is everyone doing? Right now I'm learning how to analyze buy and hold properties. I want to know how important is it to know the Cap rate & NOI before placing an offer on a property ?

Hey, how's everyone doin?. I'm an local real estate investor in the New Orleans Metro area. This is my first post on Bigger Pockets. I'm currently looking for wholesalers in the New Orleans area plus the surrounding areas. Such as Kenner, Metairie, St.charles parish, and the Laplace area. Any info is appreciated. Thanks and have a great day.
