@Allan Szlafrok do you have any areas you prefer in JC? So far I heard "The Heights". Any other suggestions?

@Joseph Scrocca Wow! Thank you so much for that insight! That is great advice and I never even knew there was that outlet for mortgages. Extremely helpful!! Do you have any advice as to how I should look for a good mortgage broker? Just search online or do you know anywhere that is helpful to find one?

Also, do they cost more then a bank? Or is it pretty much the same kind of fees that a bank would give you?

I also sent you an invite to connect!! Thanks so much

Hello Bigger Pockets World,

I am a young 23 year old Financial Analyst in New Jersey and me and my buddy are learning all the ropes in real estate to buy our first home. Some things we did to get a head start was to open a business to protect ourselves and we are now in talks with a PNC mortgage banker just to get key information and ask questions so we will be ready once we make the big move (buying our first home). 

Some things that would help during this discussion is the following:

What banks are best in terms of mortgages?

We are looking to buy a home in one of the neighboring cities of Manhattan (Hoboken, North Bergan, Jersey City, ect). Which one is prime for rental properties?

We are going to be using the house hacking strategy to put down as minimal money as possible. Any advice?

Any other advice or information would be really helpful! I am all open ears!! Thanks everyonee
