Newbie from Ansonia, Connecticut
Hello BP! My name is Shvonne Craig and I'm from Ansonia, CT. I've been taking action in real estate since about June 2014. A couple months before that I was just soaking up information and then my husband and I decided to take the plunge. We've been real estate investing part time while we still maintain our regular non-real estate jobs.
Since about June we've been working on wholesaling our first deal. We've been talking to sellers but nothing has panned out yet. We ultimately want to get a group of properties to create a nice stream of income for us and fix & flip. Right now we don't have the credit or cash reserves so we are looking to build our cash reserve and learn more about creative financing.
