@Joe Aiola Thanks for the heads up Joe!

@Craig Anderson Thank you for the encouragement Craig.

All the best in your endeavors as well.

@Yitschok Perlman To my understanding, real estate is not a quick process, things happen over time. Wholesaleing/flipping methods yield a faster return than rentals. Rentals are long term investing. You’ve been renting for only two years, I believe change comes between three and five years.

Check out some of the videos on BP to have a better idea of what to expect when investing in RE.

All the best.

@Yitschok Perlman Good Afternoon Yitschok. Yes, I do still live in Newburgh but I own my home. I have no investments yet but hope to in the near future.

What information are you looking for?

@Cian Hillman and @My Nguyen Michael Lavan is the owner of Homes By LV LLC. He can help with contracting and purchases. Hope this helps. Be safe.

@Jon B. For specifics, I would have to refer you to a map of Orange County which would clearly outline the area. Also when driving, there are green and white signs that mark the end of the city line that say "Town of Newburgh". Hope this helps.

@Jon B. As a 17 year resident of Newburgh, I won't argue about the violence in the city, I personally know one of the families of the most recent fatality. The "town" area is not so violent. Nonetheless, people still live here and are not moving. Habitat for Humanity is "in the city" of Newburgh - growing strong!! Discouraging investors is unfair. Everyone investor will and should analyze EVERY property they consider. At the end of the day real estate is risky ANYWHERE, people still need a place to live, and if the numbers work for us we have a decision to make. Wishing you all the best in every endevour. 

@Jon B. I'm curious, is your statement an opinion or from statistics??

Good Afternoon Everyone. I am a Mom of three and a Grandmother of one. I currently have a full-time job but I've always been interested in real estate but never had the time or money to invest. My youngest child in 19 yrs old so I feel I can commit more time in my pursuit in real estate. I'm discovering there are MANY avenues of real estate, so I'm trying to decide my focus.
