BRRRR in Pittsburgh, PA

[Steven Girgash]

Hey everyone! Quite new here, I have been learning about real estate for about two years now (via the internet and books) but I am very interested in getting into BRRRR real estate investing in the Pittsburgh area. I am interested in multi-family properties. As I prepare to make my first investment, I wanted to reach out to see if anyone has had success or learned the hard way about doing this in the Pittsburgh market.

I have a few questions I have been sitting on and wanted to reach out and see if anyone had real experience.

What are the biggest challenges you faced?

What is a good area to target? (can be in the suburbs outside of the city)

Finally was curious if anyone had some insight on what a ballpark price range would be for a duplex in the area?

I appreciate any and all information! Thanks for reading my post!
