There are several real estate clubs and groups in Pittsburgh full of potential buyers.One tip: I wouldn't approach realtor-represented properties with the intention of wholesaling... they dont generally respond well to that.

Developing that trust with someone you don't know may seem like a challenge, but if you approach it correctly, you should be able to achieve a pretty solid foundation of trust.The best way is to talk to others who have had an experience investing with the sponsor already.

Hey Krisztian I am from Israel and I have been investing in the US for 10 years.Until 2018 I invested in Single family and then I shifted to Multifamily.All my investing I did from Israel by hiring the right team.You need to decide first what approach are you going with:1.

You could also approach the Seller about Seller-financing.

@Deepak DaveI'd take a different approach.

I'll definitely take that approach when asking this question in the future.

In a smaller city like Albany I'd make sure that the inventory you'd be looking for in a higher priced multifamily is there, also I'd be flexible in your approach and take whichever option presents you with a good deal first.

The only problem....I approached the rental management like a hobby and not a business.
