I know I speak for the group in thanking him for the extended time and sharing his insights on the various markets and current conditions of a few select markets that were inquired about.  

Hi Isadore,I am a Real Estate agent and an investor in the City of Poughkeepsie.

It will be a quality, move in ready home for a first time home buyerDid you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

But too many times on this forum contractors are represented as rip offs .

Or let me know if other ways to incorporate into Real estate efforts.  

Hoping for some advice - I'm trying to buy some real estate property out of state with 2 other friends (3 in total) and we're having a hard time figuring out the exact order to get going. 1.

Since I personally always get the most out of conferences when I have dedicated time after to decompress, digest, and implement what I've learned, I booked a private beachfront villa with some friends for a few days immediately following BPCON (checking in the afternoon of Wednesday the 9th, checking out the morning of the 12th) just a few miles up the beach from the Moon Palace Resort, and we have a couple of beds still available so I wanted to extend the invite to folks here.A couple photos of the villa are below, and some of my favorite features of this place include:- Direct beach access off the back porch- Private heated infinity pool- Private furnished terrace- Private resort access- Wifi- Indoor jacuzzis- Private kitchen- Air conditioningShoot me a DM if you're interested!

I'd recommend working with a trusted real estate agent who has experience with out-of-state or international buyers, along with a reliable property manager to oversee your investment.

I ended up financing the home, and by the time I did, the market had appreciated, and the rehab added value.
