Post: State of the Market - Suffolk County (Boston) MA

How far out of Boston are you willing to go? There really isn't much 4 unit inventory in general thanks to the popularity of the omni-present triple decker. But you can still find some deals on the North like Lynn, Revere, Everett, Chelsea, and the South Shore like Quincy, Weymouth. You can find deals in places like Haverhill, Chelmsford etc but their rental market isn't as strong.

Spend a few bucks to have someone design a card for you, it can be on Fiverr or something similar if you don't want to spend a lot initially. I would go with Real Estate Investor or Developer. "We Buy Houses" seems a bit tacky, in my opinion.

Nice finished product, and a good price for Mattapan! I'm looking in that area myself; one of the least explored markets in Greater Boston for sure.

Their criteria seems to be based largely on their rent and value estimates: junk in, junk out. But I suppose you don't really need an algorithm to tell you San Fran and Nashville etc are hot markets right now.
