Hi everyone,

I wanted to take a moment to officially introduce myself. My name is Sven and I just got started in real estate investing. Earlier this year, I purchased a property, partially rehabbed it, and currently rent it out. It's been great so far.

My professional background is in the start-up world (advertising and tech) and I'm considering to transition form my current tech start-up to focus on real estate investing full-time.

As of now, I'm looking to do a combination of residential flips and buy&hold, ideally generating enough cash flow from flips to invest in a couple of buy&hold properties per year.

I signed up for BP a while ago and have been reading a ton on here. I'm truly amazed by the great community. My main goals here are to learn and network. I'm excited to start connecting with many of you.

If you're in my area, are interested to mentor an eager entrepreneur, or simply want to say hi, please just comment or send me a note.

Let's start connecting :)

Sven

Thanks, @Brandon Turner - I've read a lot of your content here on BP and it's been great. Very insightful! I'm excited to find more time to read and learn more!

@Joe Fairless - That's exactly what I'm doing :) Working on truly figuring out the business model and putting together a detailed business plan. Are you in Manhattan? My wife and I were looking to move there last year and it's still on top of our list. Where do you purchase?
