I'm from the Capital Region and went to school at RPI in Troy, currently work at an engineering start up in Delaware county.I've been trying to invest in Troy, NY for the past few years and almost made a few foolish purchases before I really understood the underlying strategies and how to run the numbers on an investment property.

Thanks for sharing (the memories) @Wendell De Guzman,I remember trying to do my first deal.

I'm looking to put a new furnace in if anyone knows a great company in Delaware County Area PaThank you

I don't want to get caught with my tail in the door, and would like a back up home inspector if that is possible.If you have worked with a home inspector in Philadelphia or Delaware county that is meticulous and pays attention to all details of a home inspection, I would be enormously grateful.Thanks!

You’ll have C,D, E and F come up.

In our old Aurora cul-de-sac, 4 of our 5 neighbors still live there but 2 have plans to move soon.  2-hr commutes are a factor.

I have been on property tours where the street we were on was the correct street however the next street over was a cul-de-sac and you would not want to be on that street... ever.  

*EDIT* Adding some keywords to make sure folks see this - Philadelphia, Delaware County, PA, Pennsylvania, wholesale

I won't run the numbers mostly because I didn't buy it for IRR, but bought it for the awesome cul-de-sac, the 1/3 acre lot, great schools, quiet neighborhood, SWMBO wanted a swimming pool and a place to live for my family.
