Hello BP community,I live in the Bay Area and would like to purchase my first multi-unit property in south western Pennsylvania. 

P.s. your first two responses are both RE investors, one who is the bp money host and wife of Carl Jenson, a smart cookie, and Alex Deacon, he probably runs one of the largest property management companies in southwestern Pennsylvania.

Hi Matt,Welcome to the BP family, I am a Real Estate Wholesaler in the Hamilton, Niagara area, I have access to properties all over Ontario including South Western Ontario.

Awards- I received numerous awards during my career I Law enforcement career.Some of the awards were the Distinguished Service Award along with numerous Unit Citations.Now I don’t measure my success by my awards.These awards just happen when I do my job and contribute 110% at all times.Professional Credentials- Licensed Realtor, Licensed Police Officer, Licensed Correctional Officer, Licensed Firearm Instructor, Licensed Corrections and Police Academy Instructor.Area of expertise- Residential sales and listings in Central Florida and Lake County.Education- South Western High School, Police Academy, Corrections AcademyPersonal Background:I grew up in the Pennsylvania country.I loved to fish, hunt, swim, competitive shooting and the beach.Since the beach was 5 hours away I chose to move to Florida after I graduated high school.Before moving I was working construction and loved it.My, at that time, soon to be wife and I then moved to Winter Garden, Florida.

I would be looking in NC and southwestern VA. 

I live in Hamilton Ontario and I was wondering how flipping is like in the Southern/Southwestern Ontario region was like.

Did move away to rural and remarkably culturally diverse Southwestern KS (Garden City) after graduating college - lived there a couple years, bought my 1st house, updated it, learned a lot, made a little money upon selling, then at the height of the real estate boom (2005) moved to S Florida in the Cape Coral / Ft Myers area for a job transfer.  

That being said, there are pockets of Columbus school district that are highly desirable, but it is very nuanced (one street is good, two blocks away might be bad even if they are in the same zip code)The school districts I would say that are A - Dublin, Grandview, Upper Arlington, Olentangy, Worthington - some are more expensive and "prestigious" than others on the listB areas -  Hilliard, Westerville, Gahanna-Lincoln, some areas of the following - Southwestern City, Hamilton, Grove Port, Reynoldsburg, Pickerington.Try to reach out to some property managers and agents (there are some on BP) to network.

I am currently looking for my first multi-family property in Southwestern Pennsylvania to cut my teeth on before expanding my business to other regions.  

On December 8, the most recent residential land value report for the Greater Toronto Area and southwestern Ontario was released by MCAP (For more info visit http://www.mcap.com/development-finance/lot-value-...).
