NYC market for a newbie...

[Haley Rice]

Hey there! My name is Haley and I’ve been listening to bigger pockets and reading books on real estate for the last 6 months. I’ve saved up a little nest egg and I’d like to invest it. However, I’m located in NYC and the market prices are a little overwhelming in comparison to other parts of the states, like Nashville, where I’m from. Should I go there to invest because my nest egg will reach further, or should I keep networking until I meet people with the big bucks? I don’t want to leave nyc, but really want to do my first deal before the end of the year. I also want to make sure to invest wisely and not bite off more than I can chew. Advice?
