What we’re about
Westbank Real Estate Investors is a local real estate investing community serving Greater New Orleans and the Westbank.
Our vision is to create a real estate investor ecosystem where members can attend free meetups, access practical resources, and accelerate progress to their next level of investing. Whether you are working on your first deal or your 1,001st, this group is designed to bring people together to meet, teach, learn, and share with others who can help move them closer to their goals.
The group was founded by Emile Hurst Jr. in 2019 and, after a brief pause during Covid, was relaunched in 2021 with Stephen Keighery becoming a co-organizer and leading community growth and marketing. The group meets monthly, with Emile interviewing local investors who share real-world experience with the group.
Our meetups are free to attend and are built around:
• Real conversations, not sales pitches
• Local operators doing real deals
• Open networking across experience levels
We hope to see you there.
