Introducing myself to the BP community!
Hi everyone,
I am new here and I am still exploring BP and being overwhelmed with a lot of information.
Let me introduce myself. My name is Konti, I am from Albania, lived in Greece for 20 years and moved to US just 6 years ago.
After 5 years in US, I discovered Real Estate Investing. I decided to jump into that ship and for that I thought I'd better get a real estate license, which I did. Since then, I have been wandering alone, not knowing which direction to take. Sometimes, I thought being a Realtor is all I need, other times went back to my original dream, real estate investing. After a year jumping from one place to the other, I decided that I can still wear my two hats, with the main one, though, being a real estate investor.
So, here I am, being overwhelmed with a lot of information and ready to take ACTION. With that being said, I have already bought my first investment property with my HELOC money which I intend to flip. The problem is that, being inexperienced, it is taking me way more time that I originally thought it would.
Anyway, thank you for taking the time to read my post. I look forward to getting to know members of this awesome community and learn from all of you.
Best,
Konti

Hey Konti, welcome to Bigger Pockets!
I am also a real estate investor and agent, but I am from California.
Sorry to hear your project isn't working great, what issues are you having with flipping the property?
It is great that you pulled the trigger on purchasing the investment property, you will learn from this one and gain knowledge as you go!
