Quote from @Ricardo Polanco: Good evening everyone, I am evaluating the possibility of buying a multifamily property in Scranton, at this moment it has 2 apartments that only need cosmetic repairs and it has a big 2nd floor unit that needs a full repair.

That shows real estate can be possible for anyone; in my opinion, I know everyone has unique and challenging situations, but in principle, anyone who can follow some basic budget fundamentals can save up enough for a down payment.Grateful BiggerPockets continues to bring more people into the industry!

I actually recommend house hacking as a first step if possible. 

Possibly in capital hill area.  

Quote from @Jim Rice: Lauren, really just trying to put together a group that would what to meet up if possible and share education, information & build relationships.

I have sent multiple 14-day possible eviction notices and still nothing.

Just saw the news , over 1000 structures destroyed and possibly 28,000 in danger . 

I do my best to keep up with it and give them reliable information, but I'd really like a routine place to check each morning so I'm giving them the best and most up-to-date information possible.

Looking to get that cash back as soon as possible to use it to fund my business.

I still have plenty time left saving but when the time comes I’ll either be looking into conventional  loans, or some type of remodel loan to pay for the repairs of the property I am looking to fix up, because as far as I’ve seen so far it’s hard to find a good deal starting out unless you buy it as discounted as possible and put some sweat equity into it, let me know your thoughts on that ur possible.
