NJ RE Agent Looking To Build or Join A Team

[Niraj Maniar]

Hello BiggerPockets fam! 

My name is Niraj and I recently got my Real Estate license in NJ. I signed with Berkshire Hathaway in Manalapan, NJ around early March 2021. I've listened to BiggerPockets podcasts for a long-time but finally decided to create an account to make a successful career in real estate as both an agent and an investor. 

I'm hoping to connect with more Real Estate agents (either in NJ or outside the area) to gain more insight/tips from experienced agents. 

I don't have much experience as a Real Estate investor but I'm hungry to learn and get started (I want to have my first property by the end of this year). I have some liquid capital saved up but as a new investor, I'm not sure if it's best to get a hard money loan or conventional loan to finance a fix-or-flip, BRRRR or turn-key rental (especially in NJ where prices are very high).

That's where I'm looking to either join an investment team or build a team with like-minded individuals (investors, contractors, inspectors, etc) to learn and grow from as well as fix/rent/buy/sell properties. Some properties I know the partner/team may have more of a financial contribution than I will since I'm a newbie with limited capital but I'm willing to put in "sweat equity" in return. I have access to a few of the NJ MLS's so I can search for properties, run comps, physically see the property, and as needed, act as the buyer's agent (to buy the place), landlord's agent (to find tenants) or seller's agent (to sell the property after it's been rehabbed).

If this sounds of interest to you, please feel free to DM me or reply here and I'll gladly follow-up with you!

I look forward to meeting everyone! I'd love to connect on other social media as well to learn and grow from each other. A newbie here so still figuring out how to use this platform efficiently.

Best,
