New member - Central NJ
Hello,
My name is Michael and I'm a contractor licensed in New York and New Jersey. Currently I reside in Central NJ. I'm looking to diversify my porftolio and get into Real Estate Investing. This past weekend, I signed up for "Tax Lien Vault" and a "3-Day Training Course with Success Path". Now I understand their sales pitch is to play on your emotions and any seminar will neglect to tell you that no matter how much money you pay for a course, it isn't going to be easy. I wasn't looking for "a way out" or a "get rich quick scheme" and I want to point that out right now. My expectations are that this is going to be a long and tedious plunge into what could be a fruitful relationship. Given the fact I am a contractor, it's much easier to assess rehab budgets on the fly but still there will be unknowns. It seems the tax lien investing will take much of a learning curve.

Welcome to BP. Always great meeting other NJ Investors. My suggestion is to join some of the local REI Meeting. This is were you will be able to meet other investors who share your similar interest.
Happy Investing.
