Real Estate Investor Newbie from Rochester, NY
HELLO BIGGER POCKETS COMMUNITY!!!!!
My name is Michael Dentico, and I am from the greater Rochester New York area. I plan to start my world of real estate investing right here where I live because of the ease of access while I am learning and making many many beginner mistakes. I started to work toward and am currently still working on my real estate license. I jumped into the schooling for the real estate license before I really understood the opportunity that exists in the real estate world. Thanks to running into some of the videos that Brandon Turner had placed on YouTube I have found this wonderful site and wealth of resources.
I plan on working with clients to buy and sell their own real estate while working on build my own real estate empire at the same time. I plan on building up rental properties but also when the deal make sense quick flips for good chunks of change to be able and reinvest into the next property.
I have only discovered this resource about a week ago and in this very short amount of time I can tell I want to be apart of this community not only to help me to progress but to be able to help others to build themselves in this world once I of course have myself off the ground and at least walking.
I am going to be looking for knowledge, investors, lenders, mentors, agents, basically anyone and everyone that I can network with because lets be honest you never know when you might need to reach out to someone that has specific knowledge in a niche you are not knowledgeable in.
Thank you for your time!
Michael Dentico
