I’ve got no dog in this, I’m north of y’all, curious to see if there will be a mass exodus from investing in American real estate as many have suggested here and elsewhere for the “crazy leftist blue states”.

It will depend largely on who wins. Trump wins, it's with us for the next 4 years. Trump loses, it's gone the next day.

 It's either gone right after the election, or it's here forever. I'm honestly 50/50 on it.

Thanks, Francis. Yes, there is a small inventory in a price range that would make sense from a cashflow perspective. I did see a property that looked great but had a damp basement that may end up being a challenge to repair and fissures in the wall citing possible structural issues. Unconfirmed, but the asking price was too high to explore further.

Hey Tony! That's exciting you're exploring the idea of BRRRR investing - I would definitely say that would be a good start. Are you investing in state or out of state? Managing the rehab and property yourself? It's fine if you don't know the answer to those questions already.

If you're out of state - definitely want to have some boots on the ground (project manager) who can manage the rehab for you. If not you can (and I have) get into some trouble with keeping a contractor accountable. 

If you're hiring a property manager - consider calling them to 1)interview them to see if you want to work with them 2) Ask them if they know any local contractors they would recommend 3) if they do any project management for rehabs. 

 Yes, i would like to manage the rehab myself, do i need any sort of licensing (in Philadelphia) to do this? i've been looking around and from what i've seen it seems to depend on the state of the property. IE: if it's just small stuff i cant manage it, but as soon as things need inspection etc it becomes a situation where the city wants a licensed individual managing the project.

Hi everyone, I am starting to explore the idea of jumping into BRRRR investing. Without too much fluff i'll cut to the chase, as someone who does not have a "team" ready to deploy for the various services needed to restore a home, how do I begin constructing said team? My thought is literally just start calling people and having early convos with GC's and building relationships prior to jumping in, but that is the only thing I can really think of. I would love to know some of the strategies folks here have deployed to build out their network and properly execute this sort of work.

Thanks William. I'll connect with you.

Thanks David, Yes the homes i look at tend to be tucked away into the backstreets a little and away from blvd - great advice!

Hi, I'm currently looking to purchase my first investment property in 19120, which is a neighborhood here in Philadelphia and i'm working through my due diligence & research. I think i've settled on starting off here based on what i've seen and I've also spent multiple years in this zip code. It seems to be very stable with a strong rental market. My question is, has anyone else invested in this neighborhood? Have you found the rental market to be strong? I don't think 19120 is poised for double digit growth in the next couple years but I think the infrastructure is there for it - if the rental market is strong, i think jumping in and getting my feet wet here would be good. Looking forward to hearing your feedback!

Have their been any changes on this front? I'm looking to invest in feltonville.
