interested in Philadelphia Investing

Hello I was off BP for awhile I was focused on getting first deal closed on it in a hard market Bronx NY.  Made alot of mistakes but I am actually doing ok despite challenges have  three family walk up with section 8 tenants.  

I want to reachout to other markets to find buy and holds.  I am looking at Philly around temple University and other places around North Philly.  

I want to buy them rehab and then sell after two or three years if possible or just simply hold them for cashflow.  i am looking for contacts in the contracting business to find a reliable contractors to fix these properties.  Also want to find a good reliable Attorney basically to build a team I can count on where we all make money together.  I am a newbie in a sense only have bought one property but I got that experience under my belt.  

if any investors want to reachout and be willing to partner or simply just meet up for lunch on my dime I am willing to go out there to philly.  I live in NYC not to far.

I can connect you to contractors, legal and even some sellers.

But if I were you I would really connect with someone who KNOWS Philly. It's a tricky place. Block by block, neighborhood by sub-neighborhood.

I've lived in NYC and JC. Philly one of the trickiest and most provincial places I've ever witnessed.
