Fully agree with @Paul Timmins. I recently stumbled upon biggerpockets thru my landlording mentor. I'm interested in multi family too. The resources at your fingertips is invaluable! Learn, podcasts, forums, networking... You're on to something big. If you like what someone says click the vote button in the upper right hand corner of the comment so they get recognized for their contribution and have fun learning the business. It's an exciting time in REI

I looked many other places but Youngstown kept coming into my path. Just purchased my first property there. I'll be checking out the REI group in Mahoney

Hi @Stephanie Synclair I live in the Youngstown area. Certain areas are good to invest in while others, not so much. I love it here and can see a lot of value in investing here (as anywhere) if done right. The advantage we have is price, things are incredibly cheap here compared with the rest of the country. Good luck in your search!
