Introducing myself and my goal

[Joan Damasco]

Hello BP my name is Joan Damasco, I have been reading and learning about real estate for a couple of months but have not taken action. I wanted to introduce myself and hold myself accountable. I am currently a college student obtaining a degree in business administration and accounting. As of right now, my goal is to house-hack a duplex (or triplex) in Central Connecticut. I have been learning about using the FHA route but also creative finance.

It's a pleasure to meet you all and I'm curious what's something you wish you knew before getting started in real estate?

Quote from @Abbey Humphreys:

Hey Joan- welcome :) This is a great place to start and to really inundate yourself with REI information from people who are actually doing it.

I recently spoke with a woman who owns 50+ properties and is now a bit of a REI mogul and her advice to me was to narrow your focus. Don't try to do too many things in too many places. She clearly knows what she's doing so I have been taking that to heart!

 Hey Abbey thank you for welcoming me and for the advice
