Hello -I live in Long Island, New York.I am exploring STR investments perhaps in markets near New York.Just having a very hard time starting off.

hello, I'm looking to start my rental portfolio. can you recommend some up to coming neighborhoods in philly with good rental potential?

@Mariana Kurko, if you want to explore selling options, Chris Mansfield of NAI Beverly Hanks is one of the best commercial agents we have.

Quote from @Derek Morrison: You can start by researching online.

I’m starting with house flipping (single & multi-families) out of state in the St Louis, MO area.

How to find these just like anything ask around and get out there start shopping around talking to agents, wholesalers, investors, and more people that are in the communities.  

If a property is foreclosed due to back owed property taxes then the bidding will start at the amount owed.

5) Consider meeting with a few agents in your area even if you are just getting started!

I have recently retired from the Air Force and have started into the world of business.  

@Bruce Lynn, while I am guessing because I don't know "most" large multifamily, I would say it is very much manager dependent and likely to become more common place as many syndicators are struggling to make their mortgage payments.Ownership companies are still run by people, and people that don't have enough money to pay their bills will start prioritizing who to pay based on the perceived risks of not paying.As for taking over any outstanding bills, that is one of many issues of the common LLC transfer.
