Hello @Yajaira Ramos and thanks for the welcome. Awesome, another newby lol. Yes, I love the wealth of information on BP and I can't believe it's available completely free!  Just curious, have you done any deals in Newark yet? And lets stay connected. :-)

I have 3 multi families that I rent out currently, one of them is in newark and wholesaled 1 property in Newark a couple years ago.

Let me know if you have questions we can connect!

 Hi @Erik Pedersen, I may be a little bit obsessed with Kiyosaki lol ... I've actually been thinking I'd like to jump into a multi-family once I have a Wholesale deal or two under my belt. I'd def like to stay connected. Thanks!!

Hi, my name is Candi Rivera and I'm from NJ, currently living in Newark. I have worked in the Human Resources field for the past 10 years, almost all of my jobs have been in either retail or Corporate America. I have zero experience in the RE industry. What sparked my interest in REI was reading Robert Kiyosaki books a few months ago, which led me to seek more knowledge/education on the industry. I'm eager to learn all of the different exit strategies. My ultimate goal is to create time and financial freedom. My brother, who is a contractor in NC and also getting into REI referred me to BP. Initially, I'm looking to start off with finding some deals I can Wholesale, only because it's seems to be the less complex strategy for a newby (I could be wrong) but I would eventually want to do some Rehab & Retails for a quick turn and Buy & Hold for cash flow.
