New member introduction! NJ area.

[Manan Singh]

Hi everyone, my name is Manan and it's a pleasure to finally make an introduction in these forums. Biggerpockets is an amazing place and I feel so lucky for discovering it early on and hope to learn and participate in this community as much as I can. That said, I am quite young meaning that I'm in the stage right now where I'm simply accumulating capital so investments won't be in the immediate future. Especially given how expensive the market here in NJ for multifamily housing is! 

I found Biggerpockets as I was going through researching resources for Financial Independence and Early Retirement, and I have to say this is one of the most impressive, helpful communities I've ever come across. The blogs, the podcasts, the articles have all given me enough confidence to say "I will go into real estate" regardless of what anyone says. It's truly a wonderful place. I've only browsed anonymously for a couple months and yet I've feel like I've learned years worth of knowledge, and the best part is, there still A LOT more I have to learn. 

Through making this account I'm hoping to create a personal network of like minded individuals who I can both learn from and teach. Who knows what the future holds? Partnerships, mentorships, friendships... There are a lot of possibilities! And so while for now I will keep learning and grow my funds, don't hesitate to shoot me a message and connect. I wish all of you the best of luck!
