Aly,I'm from central jersey(Monmouth County).

TO THE UNDERSIGNED OF THIS AGREEMENT IT IS MUTUALLY UNDERSTOOD THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE ENFORCED BY ALL LAWS GOVERNING THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY. 3.

I am seriously considering a property in a nice area of Phillipsburg, New Jersey, and would love any insight or feedback from other investors on their experience in the area, and any property management recommendations for finding tenants.

So I joined South Jersey REIA and met another woman whose husband didn't want to do it and together we learned and flipped 4 houses together.after that we were confident enough to go off on our own. 

I can also tell you that Illinois has the 2nd highest tax rate of any state in the country (next to new jersey).I have several properties in Cook County.

It's funny because I am running into a similar problem on a project I have in Central New Jersey. 8 units with commercial on the ground floor.

If I had that capital I would find a few multi family homes in and around NY/Jersey.

What about Jersey??

I'm from the New Jersey/New York area and most of the properties here are too overpriced for my liking.
