Hello BP community!! Im a new real estate investor in New Jersey that's really starting to Love the idea of real estate and the different avenues that real estate entails. In specific I've become keen on the idea of long term rentals and I've been position myself to acquire my first property through reading as many books as I can get my hands on, watching podcasts, and saving roughly 30k to get ready for my first purchase. I want to invest in a property in New Jersey so I can handle the property management (at least for now) to save as much of the cash flow as possible and just learn about the process of repairing properties. I would appreciate anyone who has some insight in this market or any advice for someone who's ready to take the first endeavor , thank in advance!

Hi @Patrick Cadieu how can I help?  NJ is a great place to invest, it seems like you understand a little bit on how to make it work.  Self managing tends to be the smart way to go in order to protect your cash flow in  NJ.
