You have to develop relationships so you can create and add to your buyers list.

Plus the universities so there are lots of students and working professionals as well as new developments happening around town.West Haven is good too.

A close friend was starting in Real Estate so we connected and here I am 2 years later in the business development role for Bolthouse Homes.

I have a natural draw towards the "flipping" sector, as my background tends to lead me in that direction, but at this point only consider this as a secondary form of investment, wanting to invest the majority of my time and money into buy and hold properties.My short-term goal would be to flip a few homes to help develop substantial capital to purchase my first multifamily property (triplex/quadplex), in which I would like to live/rent/self manage.

The development of the Pyramid into Bass Pro, development of Overton Square and Crosstown is a game changer for that area.  

There has been a lot of economical development by the city there to bring in business/blue collar jobs. 

Sourcing extremely undervalued property is the talent you want to develop.  

Who wants to tie yourself to a house when you can develop an app, be the next Zuckerburg or accept that new job 3 states away?  

I am trying to develop the properties as the caliber of tenants in the neighborhood progresses.

I develop towers throughout the US and I could probably help you with some of your questions/concerns.
