Hey There! Soon to be Grad, looking to get my first property

Hey Y'all!

My name is Filipe - I'm in the process of finishing up graduate school and have some savings set aside to get into a fairly decent multi family. I'm thinking 2-4 family. I am from Windsor CT, and am pretty excited to see that there are a mix of you in and around the 06095 area. 

I'm looking to stay under 200K buy in. This figure allows me to put enough down to avoid PMI, while still getting a nice enough property. I'm looking in the Manchester, Vernon, Windsor, Enfield areas. Possibly Hartford (but it would need to be in a really good area). This is my first property, and although I could live in at home in Windsor, I am not opposed to doing an owner occupied if it is worth it. I am also NOT opposed to S8 tenants. My eyes are on properties that bring in 2400 +/- a month, has an all in cost under 200K and is basically turn key.

I'm excited to be on BP, I've spent a few hours watching their youtube videos today. :)


Thanks everyone!

Hi Filipe,

Rick Santasiere is a great resource.  I'm sure he can help you find a deal.  One just came on the market today - 104 Maple Ave, Windsor that doesn't look too bad.  $100k for a 2 family.  It looks like it may need a little cosmetic work but nothing major.

Good luck in your search!
