 Thanks Keri!  I'd definitely like to speak with you further about opportunities in Michigan 

 Hi Sarah! I lived in Ann Arbor as I went to U of M for grad school and loved it!  In fact, I'd love to invest in Michigan. It pains me every time I write a check for a property in Ohio given my loyalties but the numbers are just too good :)

 Probably going to have to do 20%. That'll be a lot of cash but not sure I have an option

Hi all,

My name is Jen and I'm a newish member, as I've been hanging around the forums for a while now but have recently upgraded to a pro membership and have been upping my game in real estate.

I am a full time tech professional in the Bay Area looking to build a career in real estate so that I hopefully never have to work for another corporation again!

I own a condo in Emeryville, CA which I bought in 2013 and also own 2 SFH investment properties in Ohio. I am looking to do a house hack next in the Bay Area with my fiance. We are looking for a good duplex or triplex in the East Bay. It will be not be a huge cash flow opportunity but am hoping to cover the mortgage by renting out the other units and then hold it as a long term investment and then house hack again in another 2 years. (Would love feedback on this strategy from other members because this property WILL NOT cash flow given the current market out here.)

I have lived mostly in very expensive real estate areas (Bay Area, NYC, Northern NJ) so I have started looking out of state for my investment properties.  Interested in networking with anyone from Bay Area or Ohio, SC, NC, or Michigan (the one place I have lived with reasonable real estate).

Excited to connect with other like-minded folks on here and learn more!
