This is awesome, congrats on the success and all your future projects. i'm looking into transitioning over to flipping myself as I have a few rentals in NJ. I will sure to have one under my belt before end of year as my wife and I will be on the same page as Chris and yourself.

Keep inspiring and providing us updates. it goes a long way.

Hi BP members, 

I'm getting ready to close on 3 family in the Weequahic area in Newark NJ and was wondering if anyone have any of their properties listed on Airbnb as I was thinking of converting 1 of my units into short term rentals. would like to hear any hurdles or successes people have had with Airbnb in any parts of Newark. The area is close to Newark Airport which is a plus and has easy access to Times Square NYC with a short bus ride. I have noticed multiple properties on Airbnb but would like to hear the feedback from actual owners.

Thanks in advance.

 Meet ups are every Monday from 7-9:30 at La Rogue Lounge on Broad st in Newark NJ.

As @Lashawn McCauley stated Newark is a block by block city. I noticed it has been improving as they are developing many areas mainly downtown Newark. It is getting competitive and you will need a good investor agent to help you move forward and not be afraid to pull the trigger on a deal once you find it. I'm getting ready to close my second property in Weequahic area. I closed on my first once in December of 2017 using an owner occupied FHA loan. I'm currently living rent free with some extra cash for reserves. It has been an interesting experience and have learned some costly lessons which I won't forget. my suggestion is continue to meet with people in Newark to get a better understanding of the areas, find an investor friendly Agent who himself invests in Newark, drive by the area day and night to see which area suites you best. Continue to utilize BP to meet people who are investing in Newark and reach out to them, these are the friendliest people you will meet who wouldn't mind answering questions.

Someone reached out to me regarding this program and i thought it was a scam. Do you have personal experience with the program? If so, Please let us know how it went and if they are any negatives to the program.
