Beginner investor from Boston area

[Jovan Hsu]

Hi All,

My name is Jovan and I'm a beginner investor from the Boston area. I just discovered BiggerPockets a couple weeks ago and am loving the community so far! 

I have one rental unit in Southie that I've been renting out for a while and decided recently that I want to get serious about building my real estate portfolio with the goal of becoming a full time RE investor in five years. I've narrowed my interest down to buy and hold SFH's or small multi family homes. Currently I'm looking to buy a duplex or triplex in the Dedham/Norwood area to both live in and rent out but prospects have been in short supply on MLS. Anyone have any experience with buying small multi-family homes in the area? What other sources of leads should I be looking into? Goal is to find one that would be cash flow positive or neutral if it were completely rented out. Thanks in advance for the thoughts!
