The small multifamily property I'm looking for will need to be financed with an FHA or FHA 203k loan of no more than $500k, be located near a train station, be within two hours of Manhattan, and preferably have opportunity to add forced equity.Thanks,Chris

Have some light work in the midtown area.

Hi everyone,My name is Sal and I'm currently living in Westchester, NY (about 25 miles north of manhattan).  

The pricing there is sky high especially manhattan beach, el segundo, and up into santa monica areas.The other thing you can do is  use a stated income program, but this only works if you have some sort of self employment, 700 min fico score, 25-30% down, and lots of cash reserves.

Neighboring Manhattan Beach is the most expensive area in terms of price per square foot in Los Angeles County, so it's not looking good in that direction.  

My wife and I moved out of the Upper West Side of Manhattan 2 1/2 years ago and bought a house in Larchmont, NY. 

There's not a house I haven't seen and thought how life would be if I lived there...Looking for to invest in New Jersey in areas around Manhattan.

Hi All, What rent multipliers are people seeing for free market residential buildings in Manhattan?

World Class locations like Silicon Valley SF  Marin County  Berkeley Alamo etc etc will continue to stay strong like rents in Manhattan  or Wrigley  or best parts of LA ... and many other top end locations nationwide.. one can just look what you get in Tokyo  or Geneva  or London ,,, Hong Kong, Singapore to get an example of rents could be.. rents are double what we are in our best locations if not more for the same sq ft.  

In Rochester you would expect to buy at a higher cap rate than you would in Manhattan.
