    Hi Grant,

    Welcome! I'm also in North NJ and investing in some single and some multi family, mostly in Sussex and Morris counties.  

    Did you buy yours in rent ready condition or were they distressed properties you fixed up?

    Hi Adam,

    I hold both groups in Westwood, NJ which is in Bergen County.  The New Jersey Real Estate Wholesalers Network I plan on having a meeting in Northern NJ (Westwood) then having a central or southern NJ meeting place as well.

    Hey @,

    Welcome to BP!

    Multi's are a great way to get out of the rat race monetizing your overhead.

    Let me know if you need any assistance.

    Regards,
