Hi everyone! I am a 22 year old grad student from northern New Jersey. I will be starting work full time in New York City this August, and am currently weighing my options regarding where to live. My goal right now is to explore the possibility of house hacking in Hudson County, specifically Jersey City or Union City, by late 2023/early 2024. I know this area is very expensive, but I do have a good amount of money saved up and am eager to take action in becoming a real estate investor. Since I really embody the term “rookie”, I have been committed to taking in as much knowledge and information as I can and I plan on continuing to do so.
With that said, if anyone is experienced in a similar strategy, familiar with the area, has a contact to share, or just wants to give some general advice, I would love to get the chance to connect. Whether it is guidance or criticism, I would appreciate anything that anyone is willing to share. Thanks!
