I’m getting re-acquainted with the BP community after purchasing my first house hack in the Pittsburgh area, and would love to make some connections with other like-minded young professionals and investors in the area.And if there’s anyone out there who’s just getting started and looking to make the jump to buy their first property, I’d love to offer up advice, share my network of contractors in the area, and answer any questions that I can from my experience over the last 6 months!

The purchase price of this property was only $170K. 

I've personally found the bulk of my Chicago purchases off the MLS.

If you can show that the numbers work, you can get 100% of the purchase and rehab covered.The key is finding lenders who work with new investors.2.Partnering with Experienced Investors– If you don’t have capital, you can offer your time, effort, and hustle in exchange for a piece of the deal.

A seller can not sign away his rights in a purchase or any other document.

We recently came upon a small property and are seriously thinking about purchasing our first rental!

These estimated costs should then be reconciled back to actual costs or the purchase price.Have you had a cost segregation study performed?

I would make sure a bundle of rights for ownership are available individually, per unit of course, then worry about warranty and purchase options.

The latest storms have brought about heightened attention and buyers are more astute than years past with purchasing flood risk homes.

I'm now finally here in person, and have started to go view places in person with the intent of purchasing.
