[Jibreel Hameed]

Greetings BP Community!

I've been a member here since 2015 so in the words of the illustrious Sean Carter a.k.a Jay-Z, "allow me to reintroduce myself my name is" Jibreel Hameed LOL. Throughout the last 3 years, I've read many BP articles and listened to countless podcasts in order to help myself formulate a strategy in this vast world of Real Estate Investing. While I know there is still research that can be done and questions that I still need answers to, I'm now confident enough to want to jump in and learn through experience.

In a nutshell:

• I currently live in Roselle, NJ and I'm looking to thoroughly learn the real estate markets in North and Central Jersey
• I'm currently in between jobs but have a career in Mechanical Engineering and will continue this to begin building capital for future REI ventures
• I have a strong interest in Wholesaling as my Phase 1 strategy. I plan on utilizing this strategy to build capital for buy and hold/flips as Phase 2
• I understand that while Wholesaling is most appealing to new investors because it has the "lowest entry point for capital needed to start", it also involves an immense amount of time and effort to be done successfully
• I'd love to connect with local RE investors/wholesalers in order to network and learn what really makes a good deal. I'm also eager and willing to lend a helping hand with any project(s) that I can.

I look forward to learning and growing with this awesome community. Feel free to reach out at any time.
