Looking to buy my first single family or duplex investment

Justin Glatz
Posted

Hey BP Pittsburgh!


I live in Boston but grew up in the Pittsburgh area.  I was looking to buy my first investment property back in the Pittsburgh area because Boston numbers just don't make sense. As someone who is looking to buy their first property and doing it out of state, where do you recommend looking first?  How do you recommend building the network up in real estate to do long distance investments?

Thanks,

Justin

@Justin Glatz Boston is expensive for sure but we’re finding good Househack’s or starter investment properties for our team and clients less than an hour outside of Boston. Before committing to out of state investing I’d recommend checking out markets like Fitchburg, Gardner, Athol, Worcester, Fall River, even Providence. You’d likely still need a PM but at least you can get to the properties in a pinch when you need to.

Best,

Jon
