Property Mgrs in Central/Southern NJ
Hello,
I'm looking for property managers in Central/Southern NJ. I know that's a wide area, but say Middlesex/Union County down to Camden. Looking to get started with my first property. Went househunting in Trenton last weekend, got a little spooked by how rough the neighborhoods actually are and poor conditions the homes are in. Would you recommend staying away from these so-called "war zones"? Here a lot on the podcast about not getting trapped by the 1-2% rule.
Seeking a light rehab for my first project in Central NJ. Any insight is appreciated!

Thanks for the mention Odie.
Personally -- I think a B Class neighborhood is the best place to go for your first property. While we think there are good and bad buys in every class.... we feel strongly that B Class typically has lower risk than other classes and is a great way to start out. We can totally help talk through what neighborhood that means in the NJ / Philly DMA market.
