I have been to Jersey City a handful of times and believe it, as well as surrounding cities, has a lot to offer for investment purposes.

Is it good enough to move forward or should I look for something better.Please see the link below for all the numbers. https://www.biggerpockets.com/buy_and_hold_results...I use the BP rental calculator a lot to run numbers.  

There's a lot to learn...where to find NODs, how to search your county records, how long it takes to foreclose and how much time you have to contact your potential sellers, how to approach lenders if you need to (get a specific POA from the owner), what happens if the seller decides to declare bankruptcy, what to put on your contract, how to get and record the deed, if there is a second can you work a short, can you work the BPO, etc.  

I'm sure you have a lot to choose from in Ra-cha-cha.

No offense, she is terrific, but zero business experience.You have a lot to bring to the table.

But yes a lot to take in as a new comer in the real estate world but I am willing to soak every bit of information I can, and also I am looking forward to attending with the REIA meetings that's going on in Oahu.  

There's a lot to break with pools and you really need to pay for a monthly pool service for both cleaning and chemicals to keep the tenant from destroying your pool.

I'm comfortable holding and renting (and all the fun that goes along with being a landlord), but I have a lot to learn in terms of finding and analyzing deals for cash flow and profitability.
