Southington, Plainville. Those are B+ areas.

Hello bigger pockets. I'm trying to close a deal with a FHA 203k loan but I need to remove chipped paint. I need help trying to find a painter that is lead based paint certified in Connecticut. I have to submit a bid to the mortgage company. I'm having trouble finding a painter that is certified thanks.

I believe the myrtle beach market is going to blow up because of all the baby boomers retiring. If I can get this house paid off in 15 years I'll be 40 years old and have my retirement house paid off.

Hello bigger pockets!

I'm 25 years old and am in the process of buying my first multifamily (4 plex) in Connecticut. My parents are both retired and have recently moved to myrtle beach, sc. They are currently living with a friend but looking for a place to rent soon. They would be long term tenants for about 10 years. The market in myrtle beach seems pretty cheap right now and seems to have some promise for future snow birds. My question is, is the myrtle beach area (10 mile radius) a good area to invest in for the future or should I just stick to Connecticut for now? Thanks

I know the heat will be a burden. I was planning on installing tamper proof thermostats to lower the heating cost.
