Newby in NYC - looking for community!

[Michelle Shahid]

Hi BP community!

I'm brand new to RE investing, still figuring out what I want my first investment to be, and have a lot of analysis paralysis. Initially wanted to house hack because that feels safest/easiest but it feels like it will be really difficult in NYC. Also considering out of state options. Also just trying to take in all the information on BP and advice people are giving. Its a lot! 

Anywho, I'm wondering if theres a BP NYC community? I feel like a community will make things feel less scary. I would love a mentor and can exchange my time, or maybe my services? (I'm a software developer). Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I also welcome any advice on how to overcome analysis paralysis and also what a good first investment approach could be

Thank you x10
