Where did you end up buying?

This is my first post on here and excited to share my real estate investing journey with the best partner in the world, my wife.. we are looking into buying our first investment property via hard money.

I recommend Simplisafe (roughly $29 a month - I've found the best and cheapest place to buy the system is at Sam's Club).

I own one rental house in Cypress, but with the current market I have not been able to find another existing single family home to buy that looks like a good investment. 

Does anyone have experience with buying rental or STR property there or have a connection there that I could speak to?

So, the chances of someone trying to find the TRUE below market deal in their “spare time” is not great.  40 years ago you could.

Quote from @Lee Banks: Hi my name is Lee I'm looking too buy my first rental property and but I feel as if I need a mentor to watch, I still need to learn the basics of real-estate does anyone in New York do programs or mentorships and where would you start if you first started real-estate today  Hello Lee,I'd recommend looking up local meetups here on BP, meetup.com and, eventbrite.You can also call around to speak with RE investors and professionals in your target market to begin making connections.With so much available information online, I'd recommend speaking to a few people and doing independent research before committing to mentorships.

The process of buying, rehabbing, and stabilizing a property remains the same whether it's a duplex or a 50-unit building, but the upside is greater at scale.

So.. keep buying houses, that will work.

I also am happy to give them a chance to explain so we can build trust.
