I am a beginner and want say Hi :)
Hello BiggerPockets Community,
So this is my second beginner post :) The last time I posted an introduction of myself I received some wise words and warm welcomes, which were very much appreciated. Since then things have changed for me a bit :)
In my first post I was reaching out from Brooklyn, NY, today I am writing from Austin, Texas, I took the advice of a follow member and got out of NYC with hopes to see my investment money go further. Secondly, I am further along in my process of deciding on what path I would like to explore when it comes to real estate. So in an attempt to create a new network, meet some new folks who have more experience than I or just chat with some awesome people on the same journey, here's my intro.
The name is Joseph and I just turned the big 35, I have always been a hard physical worker but I am trying to switch my mindset from physical laborer to investor. I have saved up a nice chunk of change and I am ready to finally put some skin in the game. My interest seems to be gravitating towards Multi-Unit real estate (2-6 units would be ideal).
I moved to the midwest for opportunity but it did come at a cost of my home network of friends and family. With that, I am looking forward to meeting as many people as possible to join me on the journey. I am seriously a sponge right now and trying to absorb as much information as possible so any advice and/or guidance is appreciated.
I have recently spoke with a realtor, scheduled a talk with a CPA and I'm preparing to talk with lenders :) Small steps hopefully in the right direction.
Thanks for taking the time to read this! And I look forward to hearing back from you.
