Pittsburgh strategies

[Brady Alford]

Looking for some advice from all the Pittsburgh investors out there..... Looking to finally get started investing in the Pittsburgh area (specifically I live in the south hills). And in trying to cut down on my research time, I would love to hear what strategies have worked for you guys in regards to finding properties. Have you found that MLS is possible if I have a real estate license, or is the market too saturated with investors? Are you able to find cash flowing properties? If so, are you looking for properties that follow the 2% rule? 1% rule?
