Lancaster city limits short term rentals to only certain zones of the city so definitely look at the city website for that information. Even outside the city, many townships have passed legislation to limit short term rentals. 

There are at least three monthly meetups I follow on meetup.com so I would recommend looking there for the schedule. I haven't personally gone yet because they are usually during a week night around 6-7pm but hope to get to one soon!

 The main concern would be the area in general. Reading has it's reputation but like any area, I'm sure there are more desirable areas than others. I'm not familiar with the area enough to know those intricacies. 

My strategy is buy and hold so would be looking for a cash flowing rental and your post definitely sparked my interest in looking closer at the Reading market since I'm only 45 minutes away. I will probably have to spend some time out there to get a better feel for myself but didn't know if there was anything specific that you would recommend. I appreciate your response!

Hi Jeff,

I currently invest in Lancaster but due to super low inventory, Reading definitely looks like a viable option. Do you have any insight/advice for someone looking to expand into that market? 

@Chris Webb Search Meetup.com and there at least 3 monthly meetups in Lancaster! 

Hi Jennifer! I am also interested in Sheriff sales here in Lancaster so although I don't have all the answers either, I'd love to connect. 

 Thank you very much for your input! 

Hello! 

I have an applicant who submitted her application through Innago and she does not meet my credit score requirement of 600 (she's at 544). She will be living with her husband and grandson however so my question is, should you require all applicants in the household to meet your standards to accept them or do you accept as long as one of the applicants meets those standards? First time reviewing applicants so your input is appreciated, thank you!

Hi Adam! I am in a very similar siutation as you; we close on our first investment property in Lancaster, PA this month as well. I would love to connect and share our experience and tips. 

Hi Blake! I’m starting out as well but actively pursuing my first property. I’m always looking for others to connect with as well and am in Lancaster too. Feel free to message me!
