That’s the plan for the coming weeks. Google street view is great, but you can’t talk to residents there. Thank you very much.

The Hartford County Area. I can always talk to those owners and PM over the phone if I can’t meet them that day. What can I specifically do in those cities in order to check out these market for my goals, without setting up those meetings the first time?

TIA

Hey All,

After hours of research, reading and using BP Forums to ask and read questions and answers, I (think) I have decided where I would like to focus in regards to purchasing my first Rental property.

Before I would submit any offers, I want to give myself the adequate time to go check out these neighborhoods, talk to residents and check out their local economies and shops In order to ensure I am happy with my choices before proceeding.

As I prepare to go to these different communities (looking in the CT area), I was wondering if anybody who has done similar trips (I am assuming its pretty standard practice, unless the property is far away). If you have done this, I was hoping you guys can give me some tips, tools and things to look out for, things to do while visiting and maybe some questions I can ask residents, shop owners or landlords. 

Additionally, if anybody has any comments, I'm all ears.

Thank you all in advance! Stay safe and healthy,

Jason

Hi all, 

I am looking to purchase a duplex in Connecticut. However, I would like opinions on some good markets there to get started. I am looking at the Bristol/Waterbury Markets. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. (If anybody owns properties out there, please connect with me, I'd love to hear more about your experiences.)

Thanks in advance,

Jason

Hey All,

I was wondering if anybody has any experience investing the Glen Rock, PA area. Looking at a property there but want to see what type of town it is like. Thank you in advance.

Hi All,

Are there any ways you can go about obtaining a loan on a multi family property with a low down payment, not including an FHA loan? If I do not intend to live in the property, would any lender be willing to lend with the same, or even close, low down payment?

Thanks in advance,

Jason

I took out some of this books this week, I’ll let you know what I think! Additionally, the time I spend commuting could be a good time for calls/reading. Thanks for the advice!

Hi,

Does anybody have any experience buying commercial space? I am looking at a second floor of a building on a busy street in New York and the price seems really good. How would I go about analyzing this property properly? I think its similar to a rental property, but here, its a commercial space. Are there different regulations I need to be aware of?

TIA,

Hi all,

I am looking to connect with rental property owners in the trip-state area. I would love to connect and talk about how to find deals in such an expensive market (I know its possible). On the other hand, if you live in this area and you rent out of state, I would like to learn strategies for financing and managing out of state. Looking forward to connecting.

TIA,

Jason
