Hello,  I've been a member for some time now.. at least a year but never really introduced myself.  I've been focusing on increasing my knowledge base through bp podcasts, reading and using audible for investing books while driving.. I'm a pharmaceutical rep in nyc.. my first investment was on a cooperative when I was 20 years old.. I'm now 34 and and to refinance on a two family.. I'm interested in being able to talk.. communicate with other investors and create a solid network of people I can bounce ideas off of but that I can help as well. My freedom number is at 4k/month.. and I estimate I would need about 14 units with an average cashflow of $500 /month .. based on one of bp s podcast.. I would love to meet worth other bp members in the new York area.. even if it's just a few of us.. and I can suggest a meeting spot at a local venue .. 

Also,  I've been to over 10 different meetups where investment groups are trying to sell their education programs.. not sure if you have had this experience.. please understand that is not what I want.. no solicitations please.. it would a waste of your time and mine..

    Hi Adianice,

    Welcome to BP! Set your keywords up to find all the meetups and masterminds in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, NYC, etc... check out the Real Estate Events and Happenings page. I have noticed that 9 out of the 10 do try to sell you something, but I focus on meeting the people around me. Networking is definitely huge to make this business work. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or ideas that you need help with. Good luck!

    hello Ceasar,

    Thank you for reaching out!  I've been to so many workshops that are scams lol I'm annoyed by the amount of time and energy I've wasted going to these.. looking forward to networking and seeing how it goes.. see you at you next meetup!

    I am too interested in networking and learning about investing. I purchased my first home back in 2009, a fixer upper which has served us well - house hacking. I feel like I'm ready to tackle my next adventure. I think I know what I want but it is always helpful to check with other people to know what they are doing and how they are accomplishing their goals. I work out of White Plains, but would love to connect at a meet.
