Jason - to your point of size able down payment... is it true that for investment prop min down is 25%? That is what lenders are telling me -- but that is sizable hurdle!!

Guys ! Is a newbie welcomed in meet up.. I am DE ian but want to get in NJ REI.

Can you please explain why the deal would be grt inSD but might not else place... number are number anyplace.. Is it because capital appreciation in SD. Will make up the rest? Thanks for reply!

Hi - can i seek some advice if below is a good deal to pursue:

Duplex for $230K turnkey : rental details 2 units together gross rental $2K/month. Tax ~2.5K

I read some about 2% rule -- it does not seem to qualify that rule but then i have not found any that meets that rule. Is that possible only for section 8 houses that are below 50K? 

any advice on : if above house makes sense or not will be appreciated

Brian - A newbie in REI, reading your article. Can you explain the leap in 2009 from duplex to $4.5M deal in 2010 - what kind of cash does one need to have. You probably need to have skin in the game along with investors!

Hi Brandon - Thanks brother, good to know someone in VA market. Some years back my friend had asked me to invest in Reston/brambalton community.. maybe someday.

Will definitely check out the links you sent out. I need all the information anybody is willing to share.

cheers

Hi Odie - thanks for reply. I recently helped my BIL find a rental in Princeton (colonade point) though I live in Delaware.. I think house shortage makes a NJ a good spot for investment- though not sure if price points make it a good ROI.. Pros in NJ and DE area - can you please provide your perspective on ROI in the two markets and where should I start exploring.

Hi BP community! I am absolutely fresh to real estate discipline of investing with neither deep or big pockets. Interested in Princeton, NJ & Wilmington DE area - Investing Goal: Buy low townhouse/small single house that yields small buffer from rental income post loan/opex (hopefully).

Pros/colleagues in NJ/DE area - please help me get started with guidance on establishing connections and really help me define roadmap - 

1. should I find an real estate agent who deals with foreclosure/short sell. 

2. is foreclosure/short sale really the right first investment for a completely clueless person to start

3. what should be first step to start getting hands dirty and not just read books/ blogs - kind of action oriented learning.

Hope to hear and get some awesomeness trickle through..
