New to Real Estate in Upstate New York

[Michael Fitts]

Hey Everyone.

I've been getting more and more into real estate investing over the past six months. I've been reading articles and book, watching videos of people who have done it, and looking at properties on the market. I'm in the Saratoga area and also looking in Schenectady, Troy, Albany, and Cohoes for places. From what I've heard, multi-family rentals is what has my interest the most. I know these have more tenants and are more expensive but that doesn't intimidate me for the challenge that comes with it. Hopefully I can connect with other local real estate investors in this forum (not calling myself an investor by any means at this point) and learn as much as possible and ultimately purchase my first rental property. Hope investing is going well for everyone.

Welcome Michael! 

This is an excellent area to invest in. Networking and meeting other investors are key. The meet-up at Fenimore's Pub at The Queensbury Hotel, 88 Ridge Street Glens Falls, New York on March 18 will be a great way to connect with like-minded people.

All the best!
