Good location and surrounded by bigger, newer, town homes.

I look forward to joining any meet ups that are going on in the NYC/Long Island area just to surround myself around people who have the same passion, and potentially find a mentor who I can possibly help, while helping me through the process.

My biggest obstacle now is finding a home in the Rosharon or surrounding areas that my family can live in for 1-2 years and then become a rental property.

I also find it funny how in the podcasts Josh, Brandon and guests talk about purchasing houses in the sub $50k range where it seems in Baltimore and surrounding areas you would be restricted to D properties.Also, ill have to devote a good chunk of time looking over your blog.

I think you'll find a few BP participants in Olympia, WA and surrounding areas.

I live in Ellicott City, MD and invest in Maryland and the surrounding areas.

When we started we stuck with the areas we knew, but as time has gone on we have found we have learned more and more about surrounding areas and we are more confident in being able to comp areas outside our original investment area.

I totally agree 65th Center is okay area.If I recall correctly 65th Center is surround by a lot of small businesses.( stores, activities, beauty and barber shops, etc )Most family that would move into this apartment building would be looking for Wauwatosa education for their children.Just my two cents

I have had investors looking to buy in my state of GA and surrounding states because they are finding 2.5 to 3 caps in Cali and 4 caps in New York which is playing with fire in my opinion.

We would plan to Buy, improve, and hold the property, and in doing the renovation, would take estimated rents (based on neighborhood rent comps, craigslist, etc) from about $2400 per month (1200 per side) to around $3300 per month (1650 per month, per side), based on prevailing rents in the surrounding neighborhoods.
