New member introduction

[Stefani Mokris]

Hello! My name is Stefani Mokris. My husband and I are real estate investors located in New Jersey and we are brad new to the Biggerpockets community.

Our journey started many years ago when we decided we would like to have a few rental properties that would generate enough income so that we could live in a house "for free".

Since we got married near 12 years ago, we were able to purchase a primary home and another 3 SFHs in New Jersey that are long term rentals. We did that by using a HELOC from our primary home purchased 11 years ago and living slightly bellow our means.

My husband and I manage our properties ourselves. My husband is very handy and is able to maintain our houses, and I take care of the finances and tenant management.

I decided to join Biggerpockets because I am a huge fan of the Biggerpockets Podcast!!!! Another reason I joined is because we believe it's important being surrounded by like minded individuals that can support each other.
