Hello all!

I'm a recent college grad who's been learning about real estate for the past 5-6 months and I'm ready to take the next step and actually dive in and get hands on knowledge versus sitting on the sidelines only reading about it.

I'm looking to invest in Multi Families (3 unit) within Essex County, NJ specifically Newark. I've been in Newark for 4 years and have a familiar background with many of the areas. I plan on my first property being an owner occupied rental to utilize FHA loans and learn more about being a landlord/real estate in general.

I have my financing in place and I'm looking for anyone with tips or advice they wouldn't mind sharing. I'm also seeking agents to assist me in the process from scheduling tours to signing the documents to my first purchase. 

Thank you!

Hubert
