Newbie from Long Island, NY

[Kay Ferdous]

Hi BP Community, 

My name is Kay, I currently live Long Island New York. I’m a System Engineer by trait but I’ve always been very interested in RE investment. I’ve owned couple properties in the last decade, mostly to live in it and sell it when my living situation changes. I.e marriage, kids..etc. At the moment I’m fortunate enough own a house that’s big enough for me to do room share and I’m in a process of converting it to a multi-Family.

I'm hoping this will be the kick-off point of my REI career. I'm mostly interested in BRRRR/Flips in Long Island. I've made some relationship with few brokers in my area that specializes in Foreclosures /short sale/rehab properties and I've made some bids but I'm quickly finding out how competitive the market is. Would love to find out if there are any meet up groups in Long Island that I can join and learn from like-minded professionals. Looking forward to hearing from you all. Thanks.
