Jersey City Heights - Any Advice?

[Nick Russo]

Hi All,

I'm new to Bigger Pockets Forums but I have been listening to the podcasts and loving them. I currently live in Jersey City Heights and I work in NYC as a Construction Project Manager for an entertainment/hospitality company.

I did grow up working in a family residential construction company, so I'm thinking a property that needs a bit of rehab could be my best bet since I can use the skills I've developed over the years. I have been interested in getting started in real estate in Jersey City in particular.

Does anyone have experience in the Jersey City Heights area? I'd like to hear what you all think of the potential here as I know Hoboken is tapped out.

Also If there is any way I could get involved with any investors that are in my area, please let me know! I'm looking to get my foot in the door and I'd love to meet with someone local to discuss this area in particular. Thanks!
