@Alex Kellman @Mark Kurian If you're investing in Northern NJ especially Newark, Irvington, East Orange etc you should definitely look into M&T Bank, great service and competitive rates reach out to @Anastasia G. she's an awesome lender. 

We wanted to buy a duplex in Orange County, live in one and rent the other unit out.

The big shed is custom-painted in Broncos colors orange and blue.

Hi Anastasia - Not based immediately in Montclair but I used these guys for my place in West Orange and they were amazing. 

Apples to oranges. 

Thank you for the tips Finance...one more question...Do you know any good note servicers in the Los Angeles or Orange County areas?

Hello everyone,Newbie here from Orange Park, FL and am thinking about checking out the Jacksonville REIA meeting this Tuesday.  

Enforce this, but not from a place of frustration or anger.
