@Maryann Nichols You will not find any properties on BP to flip.

Right now, I’m focused on finding my first multifamily property to house hack in the New London, CT or Greater Boston area.Goals with BiggerPocketsI joined to connect with experienced investors, learn more about financing and property management, and take action on my first deal this year.

There's a map of all the properties listed on that site.  

If you're willing and able, I do recommend the "house hacking" strategy which is just a fancy name for buying a rental property and living in one of the units, because you'll get very favorable financing - an owner-occupied fixed-rate 30-year mortgage.I'd also say, analyze that property as if you won't live there and it's a pure rental, and make sure the property is still cash flow positive if there's a tenant in your unit because then you'll know if it's actually a good investment.And when you analyze it, include payment of a property manager in your #s because if you don't, and doing so would make it go cash flow negative, then you've just bought yourself a job because you literally can't step away from managing it without losing money.

I'm currently focused on expanding my portfolio of leased properties for short-term rentals.

I'm looking to connect with local investors, agents, lenders, property managers and contractors who have experience in these areas. :-) 

We haven't considered the acquisition/rehab of an existing property yet.

Could you send me your email (feel free to format it like “name [at] domain [dot] com” to avoid filters), and I’ll send you the link directly.Also, I’d love to hear more about your background:How long you’ve been in property managementIf you’re currently involved in multifamily investments or looking to expand into that spaceWhether you’re exploring tools for your own portfolio or considering something broaderLooking forward to hearing more and seeing if there’s a fit!

Personal use - if you or your family used the property for personal purposes, you will need this to factored in. 

Keep experimenting until you find what works for the property.
