New Member from Union City, New Jersey
Hi guys, my name is John--I'm originally from Florida but, for the past year, I've been living in Union City, NJ, about 20 minutes outside of New York City. I'm an attorney by education and (brief) experience, but I've more recently been working in the technology startup world.
My long-term girlfriend and I started investing in Union City about a year ago. We own two 2 families (a foreclosure and a short sale) and are about to buy a third. We've had a lot of success so far and had a lot of fun with it and, although we've learned a lot, there's still a ton we don't know. BP has been a tremendous resource to us in the past year, so I figured it was time to actually sign up!
A brief search here indicated that there weren't a lot of BP members in Union City, but I'm excited to learn more about northern New Jersey in general (including Newark, where we have an option to buy some vacant land) and connect with everyone. I'm part of a small team of friends from high school and college, some of whom are already on BP, but we're all on the younger side (< 30), so we are collectively looking to build a portfolio that can yield dividends many years from now.
Look forward to connecting!
