New Real Estate Investor from Hamilton, New Jersey

[Adam Haines]

Hello BP!

My name is Adam, and I am a new real estate investor currently residing in Hamilton NJ. My "day job" is currently as a graduate student at Thomas Jefferson University, and I spend a lot of my free time in educating myself of the ways of real estate. My business partner is a real estate agent who is also new to the investing side of real estate, and we are mainly interested in buy-and-hold for multifamily properties in central/south Jersey. Our long term goal is to acquire multiple multi-family properties over the next 5-10 years, and to eventually trade up for an apartment complex. We are very excited to get our feet wet, but finding a deal in our target area that fits our investing goals has been difficult. We are young investors (ages 22 and 23 respectively), so finding funding for any RE investment hasn't been the easiest either. We are looking to learn as much as possible in the coming months as we continue to search for deals, and I am very excited to be a part of the BP community! I would love to discuss more with anyone in my area about their experiences in our local market. I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Regards,

Adam H.

Hey Adam,

Welcome to BP! I'm relatively new myself and live in the area. Justin is a great resource and I definitely suggest going to any SJREI meetings or meetups. I try to get to as many as I can but I'm a mom of 2 children with some time constraints. I'm currently rehabbing my first property in Ewing. PM if you're interested in seeing the property and discussing the process, I'm still very green but willing to share my experience so far with you. Kudos to you for starting in your twenties!
