Hello from Boston MA
Hello everyone! I'm new to the platform but have been investing in real estate for some time. I started with single-family homes and then moved on to condos, typically holding onto properties longer than I probably should. Now, I'm shifting my focus to multi-family properties, particularly in landlord-friendly states. My experience in Massachusetts, where it took nearly a year to evict a non-paying tenant, has made me more selective about the locations I invest in.
I am looking forward to learning and sharing insights with this community!

Welcome to Bigger Pockets Lee! It sounds like you've had quite the journey in real estate, sorry to hear about the tough eviction experience though!
I recommend checking Ohio, its a very beginner/landlord friendly state to get started. I started purchasing a small multifamily in Columbus, Ohio 2 years ago. Columbus is the only Ohio market that has seen rapid growth in jobs and population. I’d love to help and connect you with my team in the area. Let me know how I can help!
