Hey guys/gals. My name is Frank. I'm from the NYC area, and am living in Queens. I'm fairly new to Real Estate Investing, and I am hoping to learn more as my goal is to as some point attain a rental property. However, the whole idea of GETTING STARTED is very overwhelming because I don't have much guidance other then the books I have been reading. Would any experienced investor with a few deals under their belt mind meeting for a coffee or drink?

Hey everyone, I am quite new the website and just wanted to thank everyone for the abundance of great information on here. I am 26 years old, looking to become a real estate investor. I work full time and on my spare time I try to read up as much as possible on Real Estate investing. 

Does anyone have any experience with Buy and Hold properties in Lehigh Valley? I live in NYC and and obviously participating in this market is far too expensive for me, the same goes for Philly. I was looking at Lehigh Valley, it's only a little bit more then a 2 hour drive, so it's feasible for me. Can anyone share any insight they have on this area?

Hey everyone, I am new to the community and I wanted to thank whoever is responsible for this website. It's freakin awesome! I've only been reading the blog posts for a few weeks but so far it's been such a great resource for learning about the industry. My name is Frank, and I am from NYC. From what I understand, NYC isn't the best place for someone who is as green as I am to start. Where on the east coast would be a good place to start looking into for Buy and Hold properties?
