Hi BP,

I tell you I am in shock and awe to the multitude of info available on this website. My ventures into Real Estate had sort of a rocky start. It all Started with Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Then  a free seminar, which led to a whole weekend seminar (Rich Dad). Luckily I had no way of affording more classes so I just paused there. On a whim I bought a property in Cincinnati, OH (where I was interning at the time). Long story short that didn't go anywhere.

Fast forward to now, I live in NJ, where I just recently purchase my second three-family. I have learned so much in the past few years but have oh so many questions. Going through my first eviction ever right now (fun!) and just inherited two section 8 tenants.

My immediate goal is to wholesale or flip a property (or hold it if it works) to help finance more of these two-three families in Newark, NJ. Look forward to talking with all you Essex County experts [I've been stalking you :)]

Thanks,

Jorge
