So after browsing BP today I took some time to look for any locals to connect with. After some time I decided maybe it would be easier to post in the New York section. Looking for anyone who works with real estate outside the city and not four hours upstate. Primarily Putnam county, peekskill, Lake peekskill, Poughkeepsie, Newburgh, Yorktown.

Howdy! I'm in Yorktown and looking at investing in Peekskill. In the process of buying a multi family property up there right now. I'm up in Putnam valley a lot because I keep a horse up there.

I'm an active investor in the area.  Small commercial building right on the border of putnam/dutchess counties, single family in putnam county, and two buildings in Poughkeepsie currently in contract, fingers crossed.  Keep in touch if you want!

Hi John,

I was part owner of a real estate office in Carmel years back. I have what I believe to be a good contact for you in Putnam. She is an old time agent with years of valuable experience and county contacts. Let me know if interested.

Hi Everyone! I'm located in Orange County but I am looking to invest across the river (Putnam or Dutchess). I'm currently looking in the Poughkeepsie market because I like the college town aspect of it. Would love to build up a network of BP investors in the area so thanks for the post!

Wow a real local forum! I'm living in NYC but the family (business) is currently wrapping up a rehab in Yorktown (where they/business live) and looking to do more in the surrounding area.  Not sure if we're going to rent yet or cash out and sell.  I'm looking to get more into the family business myself.  Other family members have multi families in Poughkeepsie/Newburgh, so we're pretty familiar with the area.  Glad to see a few guys on here in the area!

Hi Everyone! My partner and I are beginning to look around Dutchess, particularly Poughkeepsie, and would be excited to connect with some of you.  In particular, we are looking for an agent, as well as contractors for any rehabs.  Feel free to reach out to me here!  All the best!
