Newcomer from Brooklyn/Connecticut
Hi BP crowd,
I'm Doug Borchert, newcomer from Brooklyn, NY / New Fairfield, CT. I recently purchased my first buy-and-hold rental investment property on Candlewood Lake (in CT) this past October, and instantly got hooked on real estate. With the red-hot local residential marketing, my new focus for this year is pre-foreclosure and foreclosure small multi-family buildings (only 2-3 units) in the $100K-$300K range. Primarily looking at places needing cosmetic fixes - new bathrooms, kitchens, floors, and paint...then getting tenants in.
My true expertise is in marketing and advertising - I've been running digital, mobile, and social media advertising sales for the last decade - and I am more than happy to lend a hand to anyone needing brainstorming, ideas, strategy, or just back-and-forth discussion in this area. Feel free to give me a shout!
Thanks,
Doug

Hey @Doug Borchert
Welcome to BP and congrats on getting hooked. It's a dangerous, slippery slope from here on out, LOL.
Reach out sometime, would love to connect on the marketing front.
Thanks,
Filipe
