@Danelson Rosa thank you for the warm welcome! After being on this site and reading the forums and articles I decided to get my primary residence first which would ideally be a multiproperty and then invest with the buy and hold method from there. So I started searching for multiplex properties in NY and the prices are so overwhelming but understanble and understanding the market I can see where and how I could make my money back and more. What areas are you looking at to start in? I did a general search and found a could of triplex around the webster Ave east tremont area.  Would love to stay in touch I feel you wouldn't mind!

Wow this was such an informative post! I want to purchase a multiplex preferable a tri to quad use one for myself and the other for my mom, then rent out the other two. I already went to one bank for a preapproval and was told they do not lend to anything higher than duplex even with fha. So now I guess I'm looking for more options.

Hi sorry to sound ignorant but how much did you put down as a downpayment, if you don't mind me asking?

Anne N. I'm in the same exact predicament that you are in! @Michael Enriquez, @Felderi Santiago I saw that both of you said that y'all have invested in the Yonkers, Mt. Vernon area. Is there anyway we can connect so I could possibly pick your brains, please. I would love to purchase a 3-4 family home renovate it, use one as my personal home and rent out the others.

@Melissa Thevenin I personally often times feel that way myself as a newbie. However the more I read, watch videos, listen to podcasts, and browse the forums I'm feeling my independence grow and the fear subsiding. I did before I truly came to BP sign up for a paid mentoring program which offered a holding hand type deal. At first it seemed great but then I kept get these promotional emails to purchase something else from her. It seemed to gimmicky so I ended that and now just asking the questions I need to ask on here. Don't let anyone take advantage of your inexperience. You can do it!

@Dave Friedman let's go Yankees!! Thank you for the welcome it's wonderful to see how friendly and helpful everyone is here! How has the OOS investing worked for you?

Juan Reyes and Dave Visaya thank you both for the warm welcomes! I look forward to seeing you around the site!!

Mandela Muhammad hi I see you said your first out of state investment, so does that mean you have an investment in NYC. If so could I pick your brain about a few things?

@Ingrid Nagy would you mind sharing the site for NYC I'm managing my grandmother's house and there's a lot that needs to be done but I don't have any reliable handymen, contractor, or plumbers.

Lol, that's really the only way I know how to introduce it! Thank you for the welcome! Do you have any literature to recommend that I read?
