New Investor 2023 NJ
Hey my name is Ishmail Ahmad I'm a brand new investor, but I'm also a subcontractor so I am very familiar with residential home structure and repair. I just separated from the United States Navy and relocated back home to the Northern Jersey area about 15-20mins. I'm currently just reading, analyzing, and listening to bigger pockets daily before I jump into the wholesaling game. Id love to connect with anyone in the Newark NJ and surrounding areas, Im introverted but love meeting new people. As far as my experience goes, I'm an independent subcontractor so I know my way around a construction site, but I have 0 experience in wholesaling which makes me a little nervous but i know it is where I want to start my real estate journey.

Welcome to the team! Happy to have someone who is knowledgeable about structures on the team. My investment group is always looking for handy people to help with issues that come up on our properties. I'm an mortgage broker and investor, so I'm not too familiar with the wholesaling process but you're in the right place to connect with other professionals who can help you. Best of luck on your journey brother!
