Newbie Investor Introduction

[Jonathan Bifulco]

Hello BiggerPockets community,

My name is Jonathan Bifulco, and I am excited to start investing in real estate. I currently work an 8-5 job as a registered nurse in the Vero Beach, Florida area. I currently live in a rented apartment and have never purchased a home before. I am interested in investing in the Port Saint Lucie and the Vero Beach area. At this point, I would like to focus on single family properties that need some mild to moderate repairs. I feel like this is a good way to buy property at a discount as these areas are very hot right now (Let me know your thoughts). If anyone knows of a local REIA group in the area that they would recommend, please let me know.

Thank you,

Jonathan Bifulco
