New Member Introduction - Clifton, New Jersey
Hello. My name is Amelia McGee. I work in the private investment division for a pretty big corporation as a data analyst. Looking to learn as much as I can about real estate investing. I am a virgin to all of this so my biggest question is "where do I start?" My initial goal is to earn an additional $2,000 a month in income. My interests lie in buying/selling contracts, multi-family homes, and flipping. I know its hard work but if this is what it takes to not have to rely on a 9 to 5 anymore and retire early, I'm ready. I have 3 adults children, 1 teenager and 1 grandbaby. I want to be a mentor to my kids and show them how to gain financial independence now rather than later in life like I did. I also want to use my investments to help my youngest and my granddaughter finance their goals when they become college age even if they choose a different path.
Looking forward to making life long connections here.
