Hello, I am new to real estate, curious about wholesaling and am currently just doing my due diligence. It is my understanding that Connecticut is an attorney closing state, and that a title company only will not work. Does anyone have any recommendations of attorneys that are familiar with assignments in CT (Hartford County preferably)

Larry Garfinkel is around Hartford, I believe. 

Hi Samer,
I tend to work with clients needing attorneys further south but can send you some recommendations. 
Typically you get what you pay for, attorneys are no different. I have a client using a budget one and they have been useless. 
Send me a DM if you’d like them!

Hi Samer, try Jose Palacio. He’s the closing attorney I use and had been doing a superb job.

Hi @Samer Karar

Welcome to the community!

On top of your due diligence, the first steps I would recommend as a new investor is to get a handle on analyzing the income, expenses and ROI of these properties in Bridgeport.

You can use the Bigger Pockets calculators to start. Use Zillow and rentometer.com to get data and analyze a few from your home to see what type if returns there are.

If these meet your investment criteria then start looking in person.

Let me know if you have any questions.
