@Kenroy BernardTo acquire a multifamily property in Long Island, develop a VA Loan Strategy, obtain pre-qualification from a lender, factor in renovation costs, conduct market research, build a team with experienced agents, network with investors, strengthen your business plan, expand knowledge through tools, and take action by searching for properties, attending open houses, and setting a closing timeframe.

@Kim A. would say that a great thing any flipper can do is develop their own off-market seller marketing techniques.

Plus, with your market's rapid development, you could lock in your gains now while the market's strong.

Lots of development happening there, but not at an exploding pace which is good.

I haven't been expanding my business with LMHA since the end of 2016 per my posts above so I don't know exactly what changed, but I expect the outsourcing of inspections to private industry + some executive level leadership + replacement of staff with new faces excited to serve the needs of HUD/Landlords/Those In Need has resulted in an agency I will develop more business with.The HCVP will always be a double edged sword for landlords (See Section 8 Bible discussion) but for now I have discovered it is finally worth the effort to participate in the program.I specialize in Toledo's transition neighborhoods, discounted houses on the edge of nicer areas but also on the edge of trash...the Section 8 program allows me to get long-term tenants who are a good business model provided they are consistently managed and visited/inspected for additional "visitors" (relatives and random dogs/cats) and damage/housekeeping which can destroy a home if left unchecked.You need to know the rules, repair and renovate for long-term durability, prepare for inspections thoroughly and keep a team of contractors who will hold those standards...after 8 years we have been through a hundred inspections.

CA OR WA have all passed new legilation to allow much smaller lots and developments .

I'm originally from Western PA as well (Slippery Rock) and now reside in Atlanta.Here is how I am looking at it along with the assumptions I am making:1) I think the growth prospects are better in the Atlanta market than Pittsburgh from a pure demographics standpoint.2) I estimate your return on equity at 7.2% currently3) Over the long haul appreciation is going to take you further when it comes to net worth than cashflow will4) Doubling of the roofs is doubling the expensesThings to consider:1) What is the year built of your Atlanta property vs. what you could replace it with in PGH?
