Hi everyone! Officially new to BP

David Krainert
New York, NY · Member since 2017 · 22 posts · 10 votes

I've been reading BiggerPockets for about 2 months and felt its time to make myself available to regional, national and international RE investors. I initially created an account to read the conversations and learn from the 'veterans' on BP. The topics discussed here had me wish I started 10 years ago when I was 19, perhaps it would launch my journey as an investor much sooner. Well, before I share some facts about myself I want BP members to know, I am here to help and make knowledgeable suggestions as well as learn daily from all of you.

About me:

I was raised in Brooklyn, NY and live in NYC together with my wife. I've been learning and investing part-time since 2014 while running an online business and completing my graduate accounting degree. This year I decided that my genuine passion was Real Estate and if I want to leave a legacy I should start NOW.. 

Great to join in and introduce myself to such an impactful group of investors. Looking forward to being a contributing member.

    David Krainert Hey I started the same way where I lurked for a good while before finally pulling the trigger this past November. It’s awesome that you already got started. I wish I found Biggerpockets years ago as well. Anyway, welcome to Biggerpockets and I didn’t see anyone mention it, but Darren Sager runs meetups for New Yorkers. Wishing you all the best!
