Irish New Yorker ready to get started

[b] Hi all,

Delighted to have found this site and it seems you all have established a great community. A little bit about me. I am originally from Ireland, moved to the U.S. over 11 years ago and have loved every minute. Living the American Dream some may say. Working full time for Verizon Wireless in their marketing department but have always been interested in real estate investing. I own a 3 bedroom home in Ireland but now ready to invest here.

I am very excited about areas such as Colombus Ohio as there seems to be great growth opportunity.

Hope to learn a lot from this group, make some great contacts and ideally share my experience with others once I've made my first purchase.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. It's beautiful here in New York.

Yvonne

Hi Yvonne, welcome to Bigger Pockets. Now that the weather in the northeast is getting nicer so you want to be outdoors more, it will be more of a challenge to be at a computer reading up on BP ... so you'll have to really dedicate yourself to getting educational info to direct you in RE investing.

Welcome to BP Nation Yvonne. Happy to see you found us, perhaps part of the reason is you happen to have the luck of the Irish! :)
