Post: Interested in Real Estate and Looking to Move - Suggestions?

Hello everyone,

I'm very interested in Investing in Real Estate, however I am looking to relocate fairly soon. I graduated from college in Dec. 2014 and I have been working full time since then. Unfortunately, I'm still leaving at my parents house because the Long Island area is quite a bit out of reach for my comfort level. 

Recently, I have decided that I wish to move out of state, to somewhere more affordable. At the top of the list at the moment is PA, currently looking around the Harrisburg area. My question is does anyone know whethere this area still offers employment opportunities and a good quality of life while still maintaining some good investment opportunities. And if not, where else would you all suggest? I'm fairly open to new places, however I am unsure where to begin my search. 

I do hope that this is posted in the correct forum, and if not please feel free to either rave this post moved or direct me where to post. 

Thanks ahead of time!

I would be very interested in this as well. I'd love to get onto a reminder email or however you have it set up. I'm new to the real estate game so anything I can do to learn sounds good to me!

Thank you all for all the great responses! Sorry I couldn't respond sooner, life has been a bit crazy lately at my 9 to 5 which takes away from my free time. But that just reminded me of why I want to invest! To supplement my income so I can improve my life and gain some freedom! 

I will definitely be looking into all of your suggestions, especially the REIA, and the legal requirements that were posted. I hadn't put much thought into operating under an S Corp or LLC so I need to research that further.

Thank you all again and I look forward to seeing you all on the forums more and more!

Hello everyone!

My name is Richard Bohl, I am currently 22, although I will be turning 23 on Monday. I currently reside in East Meadow on Long Island. I became interested in real estate after looking into apartments or possibly a house for myself after graduating from Molloy College in 2014 with a Bachelors degree in Business Management.  After realizing that the cost of buying a home, or even renting an apartment, was incredibly expensive I started looking for ways to supplement my income in order to afford my own place. The idea struck me that maybe the exact thing I was trying to obtain could be what finances my goals. So after some lurking on the internet and doing some research I have ended up here! There is an absolute mountain of information here and I already need to say thank you to all the members who have posted! I learned a lot before I even joined the site. 

I am looking to gather as much information as possible before I make any kind of venture into the world of real estate. Unfortunately, Long Island is so expensive that I cannot afford to finance any kind of project myself just yet. However, I am extremely interested in either house flipping or a multifamily property that could be used for the "house hack" method. If anyone has any information regarding the Long Island market, specifically Nassau county if possible, please let me know! I would love to learn more so that I can take my next step!

Regards,

Richard Bohl
