@Kathy Henley thank you for the advice, I’ve found some good podcasts I’m following right now, do you have any specific books you’d recommend?

Hello all and happy new year,

I have been on the fence about pursuing real estate but now I want to definitely pursue it. I live in central Massachusetts/metro west area and am curious about the following:

1. Where in MA are good areas to start looking at?

2. How do I know I’m looking at a “good deal”?

3. What are some things to look for in a property (red flags, good flags, etc.)

4. And anyone’s personal experience starting out in real estate investing?

5. General starting out tips?

Thank you!
