Long Island Based College Student Future Investor
Good Afternoon Bigger Pockets,
My name is Alexander, I am a current student at Binghamton University completing my MBA in Finance and Business Analytics this may 2019. Upon graduation I will be working for one of the Big 4 accounting firms in New York City as an IT Consultant. I have recently finished reading "The Book on Rental Property Investing: How to create wealth and passive income through smart buy & hold real estate investing" by Brandon Turner and have a sparked interest in real estate investing.
I would like to start a thread based upon the following questions open to all members of the bigger pockets community?
How old were you when you purchased your first piece of real estate?
What type of property was your first piece of real estate?
What is the education you undertook that enabled you to be confident to purchase your first property?
Did you have any mentors from the beginning to your current state in your real estate investment career?
Do you invest in your local market?
What markets do you see with great value in terms of buying and holding in the coming years?
Any comments and connections are greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Alexander
