Long Beach, NY - New to this market and would love your input
Hello, I am new to the Long Beach, NY market and I am looking at this market both in terms of a primary residence and an investment opportunity.
I have noticed a number of duplexes and triplexes on the market and am considering a house-hack approach.
My questions:
What are some of the pitfalls with owning in Long Beach, NY generally and owning rentals?
Are there any special assessments / local taxes/fees to be weary of from Sandy or in general?
What sub-markets in Long Beach are most recommended (Lido, northshore, southshore, close to train, does it matter?)
I'd love any of your thoughts / opinions on the market!
Thanks,
Colin
