Target rent is 2200, my expenses will be around 2050, so cash flow of 150 (not including vacancy).  

Whether you target B & C class neighborhoods for immediate cash flow or explore up-and-coming areas for long-term appreciation, the city has something for every investor.

These are exactly the parks I target.

If you are going to target 5+ units be prepared to put 25% to 30% down going the DSCR route.

If you can get a local agent to pull a list of recent transactions, you should be able to estimate, based on the photos, what your target property will sell for post-renovation.The repair budget is the list of repairs (with estimated costs) required to make your target property look like the "ARV homes" you found above.

Before growing your team, I'd first recommend zeroing in on a target location.

Seek out a mentor who has invested in real estate to offer advice and encouragement.Determine your target market, available funding sources, and acceptable level of risk before formulating an investment plan.

My regional bank offers a card with 1.67% cash back which is targeted towards folks without a ton of credit history.7.

Finding the right time for YOU to invest/househack will come down to your goals (long-term and short), ideal living situation, and more.As far as areas in/around NYC to target for your first househack/investment, there are many areas to recommend.

I agree with others who have recommended higher end for the bigger pieces and you can get away with accessories from Amazon, Wayfair, Target, Garage Sales, etc.
