Please do post specific questions, I know many people here will be happy to help!

What's the overall condition of the property? If it's nice inside and out, or can become nice, it could appeal to travel nurses as well. Either way, it sounds like significant renovation will be required.

Hey @Greg Cubitt, welcome and nice to meet you! Erie could be a great option, especially if you guys are familiar with the market and have family there. But you're living in a market people are keeping an eye on from all over the east coast! It's tough for out-of-towners to compete and find a good deal, but if you're here and can drive the streets in your neighborhoods, do that! Syracuse is poised to experience unprecedented growth, and though competing with other buyers is a pain right now, you have an advantage being right on the ground. I'd keep an eye on both areas.

Ah- I should mention also that's for Syracuse/Onondaga county.

This is a great group! I haven't gone in person, but I've attended their more informal weekly zoom meetings and have found them insightful and fun.

@Chris Bauer Nick let me know you gave him a shout- was he unable to help?

@Catherine Cirrone I love @Coty B Lunn and Lisberto Calvo for Binghamton, either of them would be a great choice!

I rely on Matt Spack's recommendations: he's a home inspector and he knows who's doing good work and who's not in the area. Matt's website is https://www.essentialhomeinspectionsllc.com/ - he's a great contact to have!

Hi Mike, and welcome! Being an agent is an absolute blast, I love it. Syracuse is in desperate need of more investment agents who are familiar with running numbers and getting accurate financials, so I’m excited to run into you out there! 

@Chris give Nick Castronova a call. He's out of Rochester, has lower limits for DSCR but also has a ton of options for loan products. His number is 585-749-8360.
