Post: Buying in NJ - close to NYC

Hello,

I am new as a real estate investor and I was just wondering where are good areas in NJ to buy a multi-family property for a buy and hold type investment near NYC? I understand prices are higher closer to NYC, but where would be the areas that people are migrating too? and is it worth the time and effort too look into these areas?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Jerid Meagan,

Which areas should I be looking? Yes, I have certain criteria and I had a realtor in finding me certain type of properties. The problem is the realtor doesn't have an investor mindset, she does mostly single family homes. Where can I go by searching for a realtor that helps investors like us in these markets?

Thanks!

Hello, I am beginner in the real estate game and I am looking to invest in multifamily properties in the capital region. I was looking at properties in Schenectady and Troy, NY but I am not too familiar with the region. Does anybody know if its worth investing these areas? If not, where should I be looking? 

Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks
