Jose Asencio - Newbie Investor Introduction

[Jose Asencio]

Greetings BiggerPockets Family,

I hope all is well, and your pockets continue to grow BIGGER! My name is Jose Asencio, I am a Philadelphia native who has had a real estate passion spark in me from an early age. Where I reside, my father has owned the house next door on a "buy & hold" purpose ever since I was a child. I remember growing up and seeing income coming in every month from this investment. From there on, I always knew I wanted to involve myself in real estate.

I am currently a college student pursuing a bachelor's degree in "Information Science & Technology". Therefore, I had to put my real estate passion aside. Although its aside, it is not abandoned nor forgotten. I frequently tune in to the "BiggerPockets Podcast" whenever I get the chance. Listening to the journeys of other members is rather informative, however, I know I'll learn better when I'm more hands-on. This partly brings me to the reason why am I here. I'm looking to connect with other members from the BiggerPockets community to establish relationships and to share knowledge.

Feel free to reach out & share any type of advice!

Thank You,
Jose Asencio

Welcome to BP Jose!  Choosing to invest in Real Estate has honestly been the best decision i've ever made.  I've been an investor in Philadelphia, and while i'm still a fairly small time investor (5 properties) I would love to connect and see how we could help each other out.
