I found a company that came recommended from a mutual friend.

Maybe a family member, friend, retiree, or coworker.

This might be a long shot here given the competitive nature with the addition that NYC pushes for stabilized rental units on multi families, but I am wondering if there are any real estate agents that focus on tertiary markets in NYC on 6+ unit homes. 

getting this at $80k would be a steal of a deal so unless the seller has some me serious motivation for accepting such a low offer, they are better served listing it with an agent and not going the FSBO route.In this competitive market, good luck finding deals at 70% less repairs, less your wholesale fee.

I look forward to learning and making friends on here.

@Joshua Hill since the market is hot right now I would expect tax deed auctions to be pretty competitive.

CA back in the late 70s and 80s ( when there was zero competition..now a days though its massively competitive..

Hoping to network and keep learning and find some good friends.

We also plan on partnering with a friend to help with initial investment, cosmetic rehab (we plan to do the work ourselves and are not looking to knock down walls or anything major), splitting property management responsibilities, etc.I am hoping the community can help me out with some questions that I am still trying to tackle.1)  I am struggling with the financing aspect of acquiring a loan with a partnership.
