Newbie in the Hudson Valley and Catskills region in NY

[Dacia Ray]

Hi all --

I'm a new investor, in the process of a career change. I've previously done a startup magazine/media company and a startup nonprofit, both in NYC. I'm making a lifestyle shift to living upstate and right now deep in learning about real estate investing. I currently own a coop apartment in Brooklyn and a cabin in the Catskills that I cashflow through AirBnB rentals. I'm interested in investing in small multifamily properties and vacation rentals, focusing on the west side of the Hudson River with a particular interest in multifamily properties in Kingston and cabins/cottages in the Catskills. I'm also interested in talking with other women investors, and I'm reading and listening to the BiggerPockets podcast a lot right now as I figure out my strategy.

I'm looking forward to talking and learning with everyone!
