awesome find with tons of character! I've worked on quite a few older houses just be ready for the challenges along the way.

Welcome! Always good to see another local.

Realistic goals are different for everybody. Realistically your goal should be whatever you have faith you can accomplish by a set date. Then set a bigger goal for another date. Thats an extremely simple response but it works.

Contractors seem to be trial and error. If you hire the cheapest guy every time there is a good chance your going to have some hiccups. You just gotta find the right one who is an honest worker with a fair price. When you get him make sure you work well with them and build a solid relationship. It will make your job much easier.

North Wales! I'm up in Kulpsville welcome to BP!

based on your description I too would agree with Fishtown. If you do enough poking around the city there are some run down houses in some good areas but it takes a lot of searching

Welcome @Thant H.

The biggest factor to your question would probably be budget. There are a lot of good areas in our market it just really depends on what exactly your looking for. I've worked in houses from $120k to a million plus dollars in Bucks/Mont. You definitely wanna learn a little more about the specific areas before you spend any of your hard earned money. Feel free to contact me with any questions!

Welcome! ! Good to hear about another local investor on BP. Feel free to message me if you'd like to keep in contact.

J Scott's book? If so, I have. It is an excellent read in my opinion. It's not gonna give you some magical secret that makes you millions but its a well organized book that takes you through the process of flipping a house start to finish. Well worth the read.
