Hello @Hud Malik

I live on Long Island and invest in CT.  I own multifamily properties Bridgeport, Bristol, and Manchester.  Great market.  Keep in mind most houses in those areas are older so you have to budget for repairs.  

I'd be happy to talk if you have any questions.  Feel free to reach out!

What town are you looking in @Sam Slivinski?  You can find some decent two and three families that definitely make sense for a house hack.

I think its a great idea @Tristan Roth.  Good way to meet some likeminded people and talk different strategies.  Start off small and watch it grow once you provide some good content.  Network with some investor friendly local realtors, contractors, attorneys, or accountants.  They can all speak at a monthly meet up for you.  There are tons of people looking to get started investing for their future who may be more comfortable in a smaller setting.   

Very nice @John Felix Perez

And two years from now you can rent out that duplex and move into a triplex or fourplex.  

Hello @Dimas Rinarso

I also second the Memphis area. I own 10 SFH and the area has been very good to me. I'm from NY and I would prefer to invest there because it is a landlord friendly state. My rents have also seen a jump in the past couple of months as well. I would suggest the turnkey option for you starting out, and when you get comfortable and know the area maybe switch to the BRRRR strategy.
