Great buy and hold opportunities in South Jersey

[Jared Joseph]

Hey BP Family!

I haven't posted in awhile since I was going through a long process of attempting to purchase property in North Jersey (Newark). Due to the higher costs and my current financial position attempting to acquire an FHA for my first property/investment, I wasn't able to procure something in that area. Since I'm dying to get started ASAP especially after a few months of trying, I've shifted my position to South Jersey where the market is a bit more affordable.

To get a better idea of my current goals, here they are listed below:

-Aquire 50 units in 5 years. (Most likely a combination of in state and out of state properties down the line.)

-House hack the first property and purchase using FHA 30 year mortgage.

-Cash Flow on the first few would be nice for security but since I'm buying and holding I'm going more for the appreciation game. 

With that said, can anyone recommend any South Jersey markets worth checking out so I can focus my research a bit before deciding where to invest? 

Thanks!
