I'm in a similar boat as you as I currently live in Queens and work in Manhattan.

I am looking at the possibility of learning the ropes of real estate by purchasing a multifamily house(ideally a 4plex) somewhere in Queens NYC.

Much appreciated, if I could assist you in any way I will, I do marketing in queens as well.

Account ClosedAfter a very long time of looking how to get into buy and hold and about seventeen years in the real estate business, I started to look in parts Brooklyn and parts of Queens.

I believe once the feeding frenzy is done with Brooklyn and Queens, Bronx will be next up if we're not already there.  

You should into Elizabeth and Linden.

I was hoping to get some guidance here:My goal is to buy a multi family home in an outer borough (probably Queens, Bronx, Brooklyn possibly New Jersey and become an occupying owner.

this feels like a great first step.I am 33, recently married (this summer) and I think that's putting a bit of a sense of urgency to getting started.We are currently renting in Queens (Long Island City), but am also on Long Island a lot and was thinking to maybe start investing there.I own a small business which has been good to me for since I started it 10 years ago and since it allows me to make my own schedule I think it's a great fit with what I want to be doing.A couple of years ago I made an investment in a new construction (residential/rental and commercial) building which is going up in Astoria, and am hoping to get my initial investment back in the next 6-8 months.

@Elizabeth Faircloth A slightly different question, but always on my mind when I think of Trenton, as I am just across the river.

Looking for a people in Brooklyn,Queens,Astoria,NY why are in wholesale and have experience.
