New Member Intro (Hudson County, NJ)

[Christopher Gerena]

Hello BP community,

I've been a Bigger Pocket member for less than a year. My first foray into Real Estate came when I began working as ad admin for a national commercial real estate brokerage firm. I worked as a lead admin for a team of commercial real estate agents. I was working with agents who focused on multifamily, which required a lot of research on market rents, sales comps etc. The position exposed me to a lot of information. I was researching to find ownership info, market rents, and values on commercial properties, and even some basic underwriting on properties.

I learned a lot, and the exposure to the Real Estate industry really motivated me to become an agent. I ultimately obtained a Real Estate License (NJ) and became a property manager for a company in NJ. As a BP fan I really enjoy learning about real estate and plan to, in the very near future begin investing myself. 

I am currently a licensed agent and also work as a property manager. I am a life long Hudson County resident and work there currently.

While I have experience some experience in Real Estate, I am eager to learn more and hope to engage and learn as much as I can from the forums. Conversely, if anyone has questions regarding my experiences and knowledge, feel free to ask away.
