Hello there,I am a first time "out of town" investor, looking into Pittsburgh's Metropolitan for my first deal.I focused mainly on Allegheny county mostly, but having a bit hard time focusing on one specific area.My strategy is to purchase a property for long term rentals.I was hoping to get some insights into attractive areas for first timers such as myself, with good prospects and at reasonable costs?

I have heard of some evictions taking as long as 6 months when the typical time to evict in Indiana is about 35 days. 

I know STR operators are having a hard time with the regulations.

Hey fellow real estate enthusiasts,I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe during these times.

Love Pigeon Forge - used to go out there all the time.

Obviously I am a newbie in the game and I do have that newbie skepticism and always feel like I am being ripped off ( has happened many times before).

I am interested in learning and am looking for local community meet and greets and anything ppl would thing is helpful to get through this first chapter in investing. thamks in advance for you time. 

Class C and below on the otherhand, take a lot more time and local knowledge.

Are you ok with being cash flow negative at different times of the year?

I am a long time listener and advocate of the BPP.
