Hey, I’m Mikel a 19yr old from Deptford, NJ. I was listening to the podcast when I decided to hop on the Site. Just wanted to introduce myself. Any forums to recommend for beginners? And why isn’t there a location tag to represent South Jersey??

Hi @Mikel Hamlet, great to see some fellow young people in real estate!

Welcome to the community!

I am not sure why there is no location tag for South Jersey.

Let me know if I can ever be of assistance to you.

Hi Mikel!

Welcome to the BiggerPockets community! There is a lot to learn. My suggestion would be to start investigating the type of investing you want to do and really deep dive into that topic. Evaluate how much it meets your goals, time commitments, skill set, etc. Next, there are tons of places in the forums to post questions! Depending on the topic, there is more than likely a place to post questions about what you are doing or need clarification on.  Start reading, connecting with others in your area, and get the needed skills for that type of investing. Good luck!
