Renting in NJ

Hello everyone! So I'm about to start the foray into buy and hold investing. I have a nice amount of capital along with great credit. Now based on my research I have decided to start my investing in the Newark NJ area. The properties there are around the 300k area which is feasible to me plus they are around good schooling. My question is: Is there anyone currently investing there who has any advice for a newbie to the area?

    Locate and attend 3 different local REIA club meetings great place to meet people gather resources and info. Here you will meet wholesalers who provide deals and rehabbers (cash buyers). Find them through Google and meetup.com
