Young New Investor from Connecticut
What’s up BiggerPockets!
My name is Eric and I’m a 23 year old recent UConn grad and Entrepreneurship major based in central Connecticut looking to break into the exciting world of real estate investing. As someone who has always felt at odds with the traditional life script, I've realized real estate was the perfect avenue to utilize my unique skill set to build wealth for myself and my team, while simultaneously improving communities along the way.
Currently I’m focused on more active investing strategies—primarily wholesaling and rehabbing—as a way to build up a base of capital to reinvest in the growth of my business. I’ve recently had the opportunity to observe the rehab process by partially funding a local investors project, and eagerly look forward to doing my first solo deal.
