On another note, I think I can provide a unique perspective as I have worked in finance for ~5 years, including 3.5 years at a GSE and the rest working with some of the largest private equity funds in the world.Thanks and hope to talk you y'all soon!

Michael Krassos I'm on Long Island, which is a pretty similar market to yours.

The one exception might be buying on the island, but even then, the prices are very high and the competition for renters will be fierce so rents get dropped pretty quickly over there to get units filled.

@Jonathan Jacobs im from long island to you invest out here?

I don't know a lawyer, however would you be interested in a discounted Reo in Jamaica,ny 5/1 $260000 or 4/3.5 in Staten Island at $250000, both areas recent sales a $350000.

For example, turn management and its associated costs of running the huge river island park, Belle Isle, or the historic fort, Fort Wayne over the the state or regional authority as has been proposed and rejected by the former incompetent "leadership".Contrary to what I sense is the conventional wisdom outside Michigan, this is not the beginning of a disaster.

We have solid lines of credit with Home Depot, Sherwin Williams & Pro-build who are our largest suppliers as well as unsecure line of credit with our Bank where we only pay 6.75% APR for the money we take out.

It's probably the largest surface on the front of your house.2.

I'm looking to pick up wholesaling and bird dogging in Eastern Queens and all of Long Island.
