@Jacob Treptow I'm in the process of renting a unit and just found out about cozy.  I love it, I sent the tenant the request for screening, she paid for it, I was sent the results.  I only have one rental and it's more than enough for me.

@Kelly Niddrie Not familiar with any blogs however it's good to network with real estate agents in the area you are looking to invest.  I love google too, you can google any number of topics from best places in CT for rent to worst, etc.

There is a meetup in the Northeast section that happens once a month in Fairfield, end of the month.  Details should be posted soon. @Silas Avilez

welcome @Alex Testani

Rough crowd in here. 

You have to unload your single family if you are truly serious about making money.  That is financially crippling you.  Buy something smaller or move back home.  If you're making 100k plus $500 a month, how are you strapped for cash? 

I would start saving for a larger financial runway, an excess of $25k in case of emergencies on your rentals, after your unload your place.  That should be easily attainable with your income over the course of 12 months.

There are some great podcasts on the site and webinars to learn more.  You should come to the next investment meeting in Fairfield at the end of the month.

subscribed.  I'm in Stamford.  Thank you for your service @Silas Avilez
