Hi everyone,

I'm new in the real estate investing world, and I'm looking to network with some of you pro's out there to get some insights on what to do/and not to do.  I'm looking to purchase foreclosure properties in Connecticut (Hartford/Middlesex county) and flip them back into the market.  Any suggestions would definitely be appreciated.  Thank you in advance for any responses

    Welcome to BP and congratulations on getting started in the CT market! Definitely browse the forums here, listen to the podcasts and read the blogs. There is a ton of information. I'd start with developing your niche within the foreclosure market. Determine the area of the state you want to focus on and the criteria for the properties you will be looking for.

    HI @Frank M.

    Welcome to BP! It's a great community here. You will gain a TON of knowledge and who knows - maybe you'll even find a partner or two.

    Knowing that there is a resource available to me that offers advice on pretty much any REI question has been a huge benefit to me and my business.

    Investing in multi family properties by using as little of my own money as possible is my game.

    The best way to jump into buy and hold ownership is to target an owner occupied multi family home with an FHA loan - which means only 3.5% down payment. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you in your journey! : )
