Newbie from New York/New Jersey

[Andre Taylor-Domville]

Hello all!

My name is Andre and I am a new investor in the New York/NJ area. I am looking to start my real estate investing career like most people here with the house hacking strategy. I've been obsessed with the community here and I've quickly picked up a lot of knowledge through the forums, blogs, podcast, etc and I'm excited to start my journey. Just looking for some support and info regarding the process, in particular I'm searching for a real estate agent knowledgeable of my market that could help guide me in the process. Also looking for some recommendations regarding lenders. Anything helps, thanks!
