First Investment Property in Pittsburgh

[Sela Kasepa]

Hello, 

I am new to Pittsburgh and looking to get started on investing in my rental property. I wanted find out which areas are good rental markets or good appreciation potential for SFH and MFH. I am interested in Pittsburgh and surrounding areas, and have been looking at Etna, Beechview, Carnegie.

I am also looking to network and would like any information on local REI groups or meetups in the area.

Any input is highly appreciated.

Thanks!
