The goal would be to hire on 1-3 trusted friends in that area to manage my first property.

Can anyone recommend an investor-friendly agent with experience in the central or south NJ areas?

Unfortunate, but not a surprise.The more ignorant laws the stupid politicians pass in CA and a few other states, the better it is for those of us operating in relatively business friendly states as jobs and residents continue to flee those anti-business locations.

I had a friend attempt to run some comps from the mls and he said it seemed pretty sketchy, especially considering the supposed owner of the house isn’t the one listed as the owner.

Having said that, myself and a few local friends are donating some money as well as our time to build this house for this family.
