This post turned into a wall of text, I apologize for that tooSo, I'm debating whether my wife and I should pull the trigger on a duplex in the Boston area.

Instead of trying to predict a crash or time the market, I suggest perhaps searching in other areas that are currently fairly valued and not single industry reliant like Boston or even better yet, undervalued like Chicago.

I've done a few passive residential real estate development investing deals in the Boston area with a relative over the past few years.

Has anyone ever used the BRRRR method in the Boston area?

Hello all, I recently bought a multi family home in East Boston.

Especially if you are in Boston, they do not want a large number of unrelated people renting a single unit.

Anyone from New York City, Miami, Boston that could chime in?

:D Although I am currently based in FL, I am hoping to move to Boston, Ma and landlord property in New England, including especially Manchester, NH.I look forward to learning as much as possible from everyone here!

Pay for my air-fair and transportation to your home or my living quarters.

But, it does make you think what things would be like if we couldn't make useless junk halfway across the planet and transport it nearly for free.
