When I got started my biggest concern was picking an area that had enough other rentals, so there is viable demand.

First National Realty seems to focus on retail.  

Hi BiggerPockets Community,My name is Dana, and I’m currently diving into the world of real estate investing with a focus on wholesaling in the New York and New Jersey markets.

Maybe opportunity in various areas of commercial? 

I reduced the price, but it seems like the RETAIL real estate market is slowing, and I've dropped my price to as low as I can afford to drop it. 

You should be able to install them pretty easily as long as you have proper access to a water/gas line/electric meter that can take the extra power for the dryer/washer.Should be paying about $1-$1.5k retail for each addition, 94 units, I'd be looking at $600-$750 each. 

The shortest version is most of those guys are trying to get land at 1/5 of the retail value, close on it with their own or someone else's money, and then put on the MLS for 2/3 or so of the retail value so that is sells quick (assigning a contract can be difficult, because for many pieces of land, finding a buyer is hard without putting it on the market). 

One day, while door knocking in Lake Hiawatha, New Jersey, I found a house where the owner, who was located in Buffalo, New York, was struggling with unpaid taxes and property upkeep.

Since you’re renting out a furnished basement in Long Island, NY, you’ll want a proper lease that covers both standard rental terms and specifics for a furnished space.Easiest option: check out eforms.com or lawdepot.com — they both let you build a New York lease customized to your setup.

I’ve wholesaled a some deals in different areas throughout the city.
