How can I take advantage of this..?
Hello everyone, I’m new to the forum. I’ve recently began educating myself on real estate investing & that quest has led me here to t Bigger Pockets. I have a question for those of you who could share some knowledge. I’m currently employed by the power company here in the NY area, specifically the Southern Westchester/ Bronx area. I’ve realized that this market is expensive & it’s tough to find good cash flowing opportunities, which is fine by me, I’m looking at other markets for long term investments anyway. I currently survey the infrastructure in every neighborhood across Westchester County in 3 year cycles & a lot of the times I’m in really great neighborhoods (like Scarsdale, NY) & I find these abandoned homes in need of some work yet with lots of upside & almost always they have a letter on the door stating that this home is under management by “example manage co” & after I do what I went there to do, I almost always walk away asking myself, “how can I take advantage of this?” & so my question is, how can I take advantage of that? I’m obviously looking to learn something & possibly capitalize if I can. I thought maybe connecting with a wholesaler could work but I chose to pose the question here to see what responses I would get, thank you all in advance. This community is great.
