New member from Queens, New York
Hello BP members,
My name is Markes Rembert and I am looking to invest in my first real estate deals. I am a 30-year-old general manager for Dental Corporation. My goal is to create buy-and-hold properties as well as flip properties to be able to retire early

Welcome. Always happy to see fellow Queen's residents on the forums.
New York is a really tough town for cash flow. All my investments are out-of-state, and I naturally assume it will continue that way for the foreseeable future. Jamaica is an area of interest to me, because I think there may still be some hidden gems. The train access is nice with many lines and the LIRR, but that is the extent of my Jamaica knowledge.
I would be interested in checking out the area and getting your perspective. If you feel like doing a walk/drive through, shoot me a message.
