Hi Everyone!

I am originally from Erie, PA. For those of you who are not familiar with the area, the winters are pretty harsh. Extremely cold weather and LOTS of snow. I am considering what to do for my first investment property. The only criteria I am 100% certain on is that I want my first investment to be a multi-family property. Since I am a beginner, investing in a multi-family property in Erie seems like my best option because the prices are more reasonable and I know the area extremely well! For those of you who have invested in areas with harsh weather, what are some tips you have? Also, what are the challenges that you have faced?

@Jon Reed Okay great! Thank you so much Jon. I appreciate it!

@Keon Garraway Okay, thank you for the advice!

Hi Everyone!

I relocated to North Carolina 3 months ago. I am trying to find a way to get my feet wet with real estate investing. I’ve attended a few real estate meetups and events. Right now, I’m reading The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner. I am trying to figure what I can bring to the table to help other investors and in return, be able to learn from them. Maybe even turn it into a business. I don’t have a background in real estate or finance. Does anyone have any ideas on services that I can offer/how I can help other investors with their business?

@Kayla Godwin Hi Kayla! I would love to connect with you. Is there an email that I can reach you at?

@Patrick Menefee thank you Patrick! I wasn’t able to make the meetup, hopefully I’ll be able to make the next one. I am interested in connecting with your group of investors. What time will you be meeting on the 15th?

@Anthoney Hanks I sure will! Thank you for the advice Anthoney!

@Jeff Joachim Thank you for the advice Jeff! I will surely keep my options open. Best wishes to you!

@Chris T. Hi Chris! Thank you for the invite. I work tomorrow, and if I’m out before the event ends, I will surely be there! Thank you. Hope to meet you soon!

@Laura Yates Hi Lauren! I actually spoke to a family member and she said the same thing about finding multi-family properties to invest in. So we’re thinking about buying land and building our own. I have attended many meetups and I hope we get the chance to connect at one of them!
