First Timer from Pittsburgh Looking to Invest in Rental Property

Hello All,

I'm Chris, originally from the city, currently living and working in Washington, DC. Want to start investing in rental properties now that I have a little cash in my pockets. Looking for any guidance on the market and to pick the minds of folks who are more experienced than me.

Have read a wealth of information on BP and feel it's a great time for me to make that first purchase. My current thinking is to purchase a 2-3 bed home in the South Side flats/slopes to rent out to students and young professionals. Looking somewhere around the 150k depending on the condition of the home.

Looking forward to hearing your replies and getting invested in this community!

Thanks,

Chris
