Hi everyone. I'm a NYC local interested in out of state long-term multi-family rentals. I'd like to connect with someone who has recently started investing in out-of-state rentals to talk about strategies and how they went about building a team among other things. Bonus points if you're from NYC as well.

Thanks for the help!

Hi everyone, thank you so much for the feedback, I really appreciate all the good advice. Seems like BiggerPockets is a good community to be around!

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to get a sense of where I should start my RE investing career. I'm interested in New York due to my proximity, and Florida since I have family and a few friends that live in the Miami and Fort Lauderdale area. I'm looking to invest in multi-family rentals that require minimal rehab since I work full time. I'm planning on using a property manager to care for the day-to-day operations and I am also trying to target a 10% cash on cash return. I have a decent amount saved up and will definitely have enough reserves in case anything come up.

I am leaning towards starting in Florida since they have friendlier laws for landlords but need to do more reading into what that entails and if its worth sacrificing my ability to visit the property whenever I want.

What areas in Florida and NY do you think I should focus my research in? Any advice on how to invest in out of state properties is also appreciated. Finally, I would love to connect with anyone in NYC who invests in out of state.

Thanks for the help and I am very excited to be a part of this community!
