Northeast PA advice

[Christopher Polanco]

Anyone in the northeast PA region available to give me starting out advice? I will begin REI in the summer of 2016 and would like some advice on buying around my area. I want to start with a 4plex. Should I instead start with a duplex? You can assume I have the funds to buy either. I just want to make sure I'm not going too deep too quickly. I do have a full time job but I also have a partner so time isn't too much of a problem. Any advice as to where to begin buying around my area as well? I live in Scranton, PA thanks in advance.
