After speaking to several landlords they all suggested I go out to jersey due to the fact that New York is a tenant-friendly state.

Going to speak to lenders to see what I can get pre-quali/pre-approval forIn terms of specific locations in the area I'll be looking at:- Little Havana, Allapattah, Little Haiti, Brownsville, West little river, Doral, Fontainebleu, Tamiami@Jamaal Gill- My mom actually prefers moving to Florida vs staying in New York (she wants the warmer weather haha) you brought up an interesting option which hadn't crossed my mind to rent out the LI house.

For similar towns in Southern Maine:Sanford, Biddeford, SacoIf you wanted to consider more of an appreciation market or class A type of rentals:Portsmouth, Rye, Hampton, Seabrook, Newmarket, Durham, York, Kittery, Portland. 

What are the migration trends out of California and out of New York?

Are you comfortable owning in more tenant friendly states like New York, California, and Vermont, or do you want more landlord friendly states like most southern/red states?

I am looking into possibly purchasing a small apartment building (5-8 units) in the West New York, NJ area.

My wife and I recently relocated from New York City to Olney, MD. 

I live in NYC New York, so living comfortably here would require at least 12k a month (monthly expenses, have money to invest, and enjoy life).

Bancorp, Bank of New York Mellon Corp., State Street Corp., and Truist Financial Corp.

I’m in New York state and this is a single family rental home.
