I'm in Buzzards Bay, just starting out too and trying to decide between SFR and small multi.Let me know if you find out about any southeastern MA real estate groups, and Good luck!

I just bought a 5 unit home that has aluminum wiring and I can't find an insurance company who will insure me.

Exterior is aluminum siding, needs a new roof and some exterior trim work. 

We can even go as far as the rest of the south eastern WI area.

Market has been pretty busy for us in southeastern mass . 

We did a DIY asbestos remediation of asbestos shingle siding underneath the aluminum siding that made the building look straight and square... got lucky and was able to dispose of it nearly for free at a Hazardous materials disposal event nearby.

Many proponents of vinyl say wood or aluminum-clad wood should not be used any more.

I'm new to BP and REI; looking to get into some multifamily deals in the Southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island areas.
