Newbie intro

[Hendrix P.]

Hi all,

I'm new to the real estate thing and looking into buying my first investment property. I am based in NYC but looking to possible buy something in Detroit. I've been doing a lot of research and keep coming up to this site so figured I might as well sign up since I spend so much time read the post.

I picked/leaning on Detroit because I've read that the market is reasonable and rental market is good. I am looking to buy something that is not too much money up front so I can have some reserves for the hiccups that are sure to come. I've read some much that I'm not even sure where to start. So, I welcome and would appreciate any and all advice.

Thanks in advance for all your advice.
