Hey BP!
I'm Eric from central Jersey and I'm brand new to Bigger Pockets. I have always thought of passive real estate income as something I wanted to get into but always thought of it as a hobby I could start at anytime. After turning 30 and not being happy with my position in life I have turned a new leaf and decided the time is now for me to get serious about putting thoughts into action.
I am currently reading Brandon's book on rental property investing and already taking on a different outlook on how to achieve my goals in real estate. I would also love to get involved with local meet ups and talk with landlords and investors in the central new jersey area. I would like to get tips on how they analyze properties and source great deals with positive cash flow considering we are in a state with some of the highest property taxes and costs of living in the country.
I look forward to getting any tips and making many connections that would help to build my network and knowledge in the real estate investing community!
