Anyone from Sussex County?

Posted Jul 11 2017, 08:54

I'm a new investor getting ready to actually start doing things and I was wondering if anyone else on here was from Sussex County?  You know, the REAL Northern NJ?  An hour north of what most people consider to be Northern New Jersey.  :)

I'm looking into doing some wholesaling and some simple flips and later getting into bigger flips and buying rental units. There doesn't appear to be an REI group up here that I could find. If anyone's interested in starting one I'd be happy to help organize it. I don't know any other investors in the area and want to start networking.

Hey @Tom Rockwell welcome to BP! I'm up in the northern nj as well! I agree that REI should be formed. I'd be down to attend! I also have my RE license as well. If you ever have any questions feel free to reach out!

Hi Tom! I am not from the "REAL" Northern NJ :) BUT, I did just finish a project right by you (Hamburg/Hardyston area), so I'm familiar with the area if I can answer any questions.

I'm still in the area, but I never did do anything RE wise.  Still thinking about it, but I'm mostly focussed on other things at the moment.

The Real Northern NJ... numbers and pricing work well up there, but make sure that you price well, market aggressively and get a septic/cesspool inspection (if the property has one), you'll thank me later
