First Time Investing - Start local in NJ or out of state?
Hello all,
This is my first post since beginning to listen to Bigger Pockets about 2 months ago. I've gained a lot of interest and I'm hoping I can make the right moves to help my little family consisting of my girlfriend and 2 year old son.
Our apartment lease is up in February 2019. I've been looking for a 2 family house in NJ to house hack but the market is very expensive in North East NJ (taxes range from 8-12K).
We have enough capital to put down 20% comfortably but can someone please recommend whether I should first invest into a 2 family in NJ since our lease is coming up OR should I first invest out of state then move into a 1 family house in 2020?
