I’m located east of Albany and currently building up my knowledge on wholesaling/investing, im also finishing up on my REA course. I’ve been a hairstylist and salon owner for 25 years I’ve been very successful likely because I’m pretty down to earth and relatable but also have a good sense for sales and business. So thx too my industry, my networking and social abilities are spot on. I also grew up in construction (literally on a different job site daily lol) my parents are both very successful contractors and built themselves from the ground up. Naturally I have a huge interest in real estate. I’d love to connect with any other upstaters on here. Particularly anyone on the outskirts of the cities. I believe there are far more opportunities in these rural towns than people realize. you just have to know where to look and speak the local lingo. Excited for this next chapter of my life, and very glad I’ve found a community to engage with. There doesn’t seem to be a ton of talk in regards to the upstate ny’s.

essentially I’d like too get into investing in my own real estate, but I’m thinking of wholesaling too bank some funds away so I don’t have too touch my savings.

I definitely have quite a team on my side, my aging parents need to slow down physically with construction but the vast knowledge they have will be crucial for my start up. My father is also an inspector. My husband works in chimney supplies, and was previously working in hvac and general construction for many years. He is amazing with tile and custom trim work! we renovated our current home a 1700’s farm house too bring it up too modern day standards while maintaining the integrity of the farmhouse appeal. Also, my oldest nephew who resides with me is a big machine operator and I enrolled him in a course to get licensed as an appraiser. Not too mention when you grow up in the sticks, everyone works in some sort of trade, and being a small town hairstylist I know them all.. So I’ve got a lot of good people on my team, I just needed to take the big leap. So here I am, any advice or networking availability is very welcome.
thx BP fam! Excited to be here.

Albany, New York
