Good points by everyone above. Two thoughts from my end: 1) If you plan on living there, I would choose where you would want to life over ROI any day of the week. Also, even though the cash on cash return won’t be as high as in PG, the value of the home might if you choose the right area. 2) From my experience, how good a tenant is is directly related to how good the management is. If you treat your tenants with care, the chances of having a good tenant is pretty high, even in not so good neighborhoods.

Thank you for the suggestion Peter. I was looking for an online software that I can access through website or mobile app.

I use LandlordMax for my ten units across two buildings.  It should have everything one would need. Tons of report features. 

Hi all,

I have 4 investment properties that I manage myself and def plan to have more in the future but will take a while to them up. I currently manage the properties w/ Google Docs and Sheets but would like to find software. Being a tech person, I def appreciate the value of software. 

I saw the list BP posted here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/rei/online-property-...

I looked into Appfolio, which requires a min of 50 units. I also looked into Buildium, which costs $45 for 4 units, which is a bit too pricey for me right now.

Are there any software that's suitable for a beginner like me that only has 4 units?

Thanks,

Yi

I have 5 rentals but will increase dramatically this year. I'm looking for a web app, not necessarily a mobile app. Looking for as comprehensive a software as possible. 

Update: having features to keep investors updated on the numbers are very important for me.

Hi all,

Does anyone have recommendations for a property management app that makes managing tenants easier as well as features to keep investors updated?

Thanks,
Yi

Thanks for sharing your story, Frank. 

If anyone has any insight as to which neighborhoods to look into, please chime in. Thanks!

Frank Chin thank you for the detailed analysis. Maybe I will look into rental properties instead. Which neighborhoods do you think I should start looking at? Thanks again!

Hi all,

My name is Yi. I'm a semi-experienced real estate investor, with a special interest in flips. My budget is anything under 500k (cash). Does anyone have experience with the Queens or Brooklyn market? Would love to connect.

Thanks,

Yi

Hi all,

I'm a real estate investor and love house flipping. My budget is anything under 500k. As the title suggests, where are the opportunities for flips in Queens or Brooklyn?

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Yi

I'm a flipper in PG and buy with cash. If you have any good deals, please PM me. I buy on average 2 a month.
