Newbie in Suffolk County, NY
Hi my name is Christian Barroso, I am in Suffolk County, Long Island, NY. I am a cook in a restaurant in a hotel.
I am very new to real estate, I have no properties yet. I have watched a few webinars and read many articles and blog posts on Bigger Pockets. My goal is to get into rentals and become a landlord in Long Island, preferably Suffolk County.
I plan on buying my first property this year and hope I can get a lot of advice from the Bigger Pockets forum. Are there any people here from Long Island who can give me their opinions on rental investing in Long Island? I have found a lot of rental listings online but I have difficulty finding worthwhile properties for sale.
I want to use an FHA loan to purchase my first property. Would that be a good idea? Properties on Long Island are very expensive.
