I have created two posts in the past day or so and they both are providing mixed information. 

the problem being in my market (Brooklyn ny) the lowest house is 800k and rent is generally 2000-3500 (medium) 

the second problem is I am a college graduate with a part time job and low income so getting a 800k mortgage is almost a no. 

so if I look at out of state the pricing is generally what I have saved up and I can just buy it with a low down payment but it's not near by and I can't manage it or do I stay local able to manager it but pretty much not able to do anything until I have some cash available? 

my next strategy would be house hacking but even then my market seems too high and I would still need to get approved for a loan

Hi all,

I am a starting out investor looking to chat with some , who are in my area and have some experience in this field. 

I generally just have a couple questions about mortgage rates and rent to price ratio for our area. and possibly which strategy is best for our state

Thanks all

@Nicholas L. Thank you for the advice. My question is most if not all properties near by don't hit one percent rule.  So I would need to venture out to nj or pa that still leaves this as a question. How can I know more about a market ?  

Hi all,

I am currently in Brooklyn ny and it seems that my area everything is way to expensive to invest in ( if someone has any information that would be great on how I can invest here) although if I were to purchase out of state how can I gauge the market and understand the situation/areas ? What do you recommend for some one out of state
