Retiring to Riches: Selling Westchester Home to Fund Triangle Investments
Hi BiggerPockets Community,
I’m Joshua, based in Westchester County, NY, and excited to join BiggerPockets. I’m eager to connect with investors as I plan my real estate journey in the Durham, Raleigh, Chapel Hill, NC area (2026–2027).
🌎 **Location**: I live in a single-family home in Westchester, NY, and plan to invest in the Triangle (Durham, Raleigh, Chapel Hill, NC).
💫 **Goals**: My goal is to buy a single-family home ($400,000–$600,000) with a modern kitchen and bathroom for my wife, who prefers not living in a multifamily setup, and a 2-4 family property ($600,000–$700,000) for rental income and long-term equity growth (8–10 units by 2035). I’ll fund these with savings and proceeds from selling my Westchester home (2027, targeting $250,000 net after minor renovations).
🏠 **Why Real Estate**: I’m retiring in 2026 and got interested in real estate to build passive income and wealth for retirement. Living in my current home has sparked my passion for investing in single-family and multifamily properties.
❓ **Question**: Can anyone recommend reliable lenders in the Triangle for single-family and multifamily loans? Also, any tips for finding updated single-family homes or multifamily deals in Durham or Raleigh?
I’m looking forward to learning from the community and connecting with Triangle investors and Westchester agents for my home sale. Thanks for any insights!
Best,
Joshua
