Hey BP community. Newbie from NYC

Hey everyone!

My name is Sam Sjoberg and I am currently residing in the concrete jungle that is Manhattan, New York. Currently, I work for a large RE Developer in a portfolio management role. Grew up in Westchester, NY and studied at the University of Maryland. I stumbled onto the BP podcast through the StockTwits Daily Rip email just a few weeks ago and have been hooked since. After binge listening for a few days, I bought and read through Set For Life and recently picked up one of Brandon's books to continue my education in the REI game.

I'm very excited to read through the forums and continue learning and meeting the community. I'm looking to do my first deal in the next 12-18 months, either a house hack or turnkey rental (potentially out of state). Interested in networking with others in the NYC area and around the country.

@Sam Sjoberg

As a fellow New Yorker the best option for me was out of state investing.  I have been doing it for close to a decade now and haven't looked back.  If you have specific questions, feel free to PM me.

Best of luck!
