Hello,
I am very excited to be making this post. I have been a Bigger Pockets listener for the past year or so and finally decided to take the leap into investing. Me and my partner are looking to invest in our first buy and hold using the BRRR strategy in the Philadelphia area. I am beyond excited for this journey wanted to take time to introduce myself to the Bigger Pockets community. If there are any investors local to Philly, lets chat!

Hi Eugene,
As a Philadelphia area based investor, I'd like to say welcome to the BP forums! If you haven't already I'd check out our local forum to connect with other Philly based investors.
Also, I always recommend newbies check out our local REIA group, DIG (Diversified Investor Group). They were game changing for me when I was starting out. Partner the in-person networking of that group with BiggerPockets, and you should be off to a pretty good start ;)
Best of luck and feel free to reach out to me via PM if you ever have any specific questions!

Eugene - Happy to connect sometime. We have done most of our investing using that same strategy --- and it changed our life over the course of 6 years. Happy to meet up in Philly sometime or catch-up on a phone call if you ever have questions. The single biggest thing to help us was having local people we could trust when we ran into crazy situations.... since it seems to happen a lot in real estate! Good luck!

Hey Eugene! I'm a local investor/agent and would love to chat sometime. I specialize in multi family properties, but lately have been looking into and considering getting into flipping.
