NYC investing? Too expensive for my blood
I'm looking for some great areas to invest in within a 3 hour radius from New York. Frankly it's too expensive over here and I'm itching to get in.
How's Pennsylvania or Connecticut?
Any advise is much appreciated

I'm sure there are a lot of areas to invest in, i am investing in PA right now. Some might depend on the niche you are going after, buy and hold, flip, wholesale, etc. have you thought of student rentals ? PA is loaded with colleges. you looking for SFH or complex ? where ever you invest there are good and bad areas, it's just a matter of doing your home work.
