Hello I am a recent bigger pockets fan. I am an immigrant. I have been blessed to be in America for 2 years and a few months now. I hit the ground crawling as fast as I could, working 2 jobs, living below my means, reading and learning dividend investing. Then I found bigger pockets and poof !explosion! Mind blown! I've saved $32 000 over these 2 years . Should I wait for the market to turn ? Save more ? I live in New York. Not an easy market for a newbie

Hi Shemroy, me too. I moved here in August 2017. How has building your credit been for you?
