New Hampshire start up investing
Hi everyone,
Been listening to the podcast and wanted to introduce myself. I have been trying to forgive out how to get started and learn from someone in New Hampshire about buy and holds and possibly flips.
Hi Dan,
welcome to bigger pockets and the world of real estate investing. I actually host the meetup every other month in Manchester New Hampshire and this Monday is the next session. The meetup is at the farm restaurant in Manchester on elm Street starting at 6:30 p.m. hopefully you can make it.
Welcome to BiggerPockets @Dan Hopkins! You're definitely in the right place. Finding an investor friendly agent is a great start and attending local meet-up like what @Michael Ketchen shared is a great plan too! I'm happy to share my experience working with people just like you, feel free to reach out!

Hey Dan!
Congrats on taking the step of getting yourself out there and in front of other investors. The podcast and forums here are a tremendous resource to be able to lean on when you are first starting. Hopefully you have a good foundation from your time spent listening and here and are ready to take some action.
I would recommend getting out face to face with some local real estate investor meet ups as well as start reaching out to some investor friendly lenders and agents. The other thing that is helpful is to keep watching your market and familiarize yourself with buy and holds and potential flips that have come up for sale. The more you know about your own market the better!
Hi Dan, I grew up very close to NH! What part of New Hampshire are you located?
I'd love to offer insight where I can, and connect!
I’m in Rochester, willing to chat anytime. I have a hand full of buy and holds and i’ve done some live in flips.

Hi Michael,
Thank you so much for inviting me to the meet up. I unfortunately have to work that night. When do you usually hold these meet ups? I am definitely interested to go to them and meet/ learn from different people about their experiences and absorb their knowledge.

Thank you Sean. I will definitely be reaching out to ask you lots of questions. I am looking forward to trying out the meet ups and learn as much as I can so I can start my journey and invest in myself.

Thank you Jaylan. I am looking forward to going to the meet ups and learning as much as possible I have already been saving for quite some time and want to make my money work for me. I appreciate the advice and will be on here asking a lot more as things come up. That is one big thing I am interested in is learning to read the market and what is a good deal vs a nightmare. I never really knew where to begin when it came to real estate or where to even begin to understand it and since I have been listening to biggerpockets that has really opened my mindset to new things.

Hi Alli,
I live in Hooksett NH currently. I would absolutely appreciate to connect with you and learn how money works in real estate and get a better grasp of how to begin to talk to lenders and how to really be able to walk into a room and have all my numbers ready to go so that way I would have better creditability. Thank you so much! I honestly thought that it would have been days before really reaching out to someone but this has been amazing to just be able to network with ease. I look forward to connecting with you and learning about what you do.

Hi Mitch,
Thank you and that would be awesome. i would like to understand more about how you got started and what challenges have you faced since you started.
We usually have them every other month on the third Monday of that month. Hope to see you at the next one.
Some of my close friends live in Brentwood NH, too funny! Feel free to shoot me a DM if you're interested in discussing more details about lending and overall real estate.Hi Alli,

Hi Dan,
also just getting started in New Hampshire. I discovered BiggerPockets around September while researching about small multi family investing. I closed on my first duplex at the end December in Dover. Currently doing most of the work on the downstairs unit to get it ready to rent as well as renovating/repairing the upstairs unit while living in it.
