Hi Guys,

  Great discussion, I'm an investor and a RE agent and have clients interested in multi family in Peabody. Swaraj, would you send me the info as well? 

Welcome Ben and nice work. I think you should invest where the numbers make sense for you. I purchased multiple investment properties in Lowell for clients. Waltham and Framingham are great areas in my opinion as well.

Hi Josh,

     I'm a RE agent and an investor. I think if you're house hacking it's much easier being a landlord than from a few thousand miles away, that's how I started years ago. I have a team and our business model is to find off market deals in higher end towns and to develop for new construction. There is a property coming in Maynard if you're interested. My office is in Wakefield if you'd like to meet up for coffee. Reach out to me if you have any question or concerns. Thanks, Corey

Try to go for traditional with banking, it's less expensive and will help build your credit. Use hard money as a last resort because it takes a big chunk of your profit.

Thank you Bill, Sharon, Rick and Rich. You all are a wealth of knowledge and I really appreciate all the information.

Another option is having a contractor put vinyl siding over the asbestos siding.

Hi Casey, You can also check with city hall to see if there were any 21E issues. Many time if it's a busy gas station they get it tested every three months and give the reports to the abutters.
