New Real estate Investor in the Philadelphia area
Hi my name is Chaim Broderick and have worked in property/asset management for about 3 years. I just moved to Philadelphia and am working on trying to by my first investment property. (I gave always been on the management side of things working with unit turns, Capex, construction and things like that but never crunching the numbers or the investment part of things.) I am looking to buy 2-4 unit investment and got a list of about 150 properties.My question is how would I go about crunching the numbers and sifting through all of it, it because I obviously didn't get any info from the sellers as far as taxes, rent and stuff like that so how can I narrow things down and figure out what to pick as my first property? It just seems like way to many properties to pick from all at once. Thank you in advanced for all your time and looking forward to meeting, getting to know and connect with everyone on here.

Hi @Chaim Broderick welcome to the other side of real estate! Atlas is definitely a good resource to find out what the taxes are. It will tell you the zoning and if there are any violations on the property. For rent, look up rental listings in that area or if you know someone that has access to the MLS they might be able to help you out.
