Being a local real estate investor from Luzerne County, I felt that, as this area is becoming more and more attractive to investors near and far, there currently is no way to communicate with fellow investors regarding real estate issues pertaining to Northeast PA (as far as I'm aware).
My purpose for creating this blog is to discuss real estate investing within NEPA - I feel that blogging is the way to go now and by creating this blog I want to be able to discuss with fellow investors such things as follows:
1. Current legal issues affecting investing in this area
2. Advice on using contractors for fix-ups and rehabs.
3. Best deals out there - for example: who's got the best prices for replacement windows, etc. (My opinion on windows is Millers Surplus - $38 a pop!).
4. Share deals, create deals.
5. Share ideas on what works and what doesn't.
The list could go on for ever but hopefully you all get the idea - what I am attempting to do is promote communication between investors in the area and who knows what may come of it. NEPA is an up and coming area for investors so I hope this bog will be accepted by all as a positive way forward to help all investors in this area.
Feel free to post your comments - its free.

Thanks for the good info. I bookmarked this blog so I can come back and read more. I too consider myself to be a NEPA investor (just starting out, I only have 3 properties).
Waht area are you investing in? I am in the Luzerne County area.
I grew up in Edwardsville, live in King Of Prussia, and have houses in Edwardsville, Hanover Twp., and Wilkes-Barre.
Who manages your properties? Do you use a Property Management Company? If so, who are they and how are they working out for you? I haven't had any success with Property Management Companies and I really need to use one to free up my time. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Sorry, I don't have any good suggestions of property management companies. My dad lives within 5 miles of all my properties so he helps with any emergencies. If needed I will make the 2 hour trip up the NE extension to take care of something if needed.
Hi everyone. I'm a new investor in Luzerne County as well, and happy to find this site. Hopefully it will continue to grow. Is anyone aware of REIA meetings locally? If not, I'd like to organize a real estate investors group locally for networking. Anyone interested? I know that I, for one, could really benefit from this, as I have alot of questions.
Regarding a local investors association - there is the Wyoming Valley Real Estate Investors Association. I am a member and we meet the last Tuesday of every month at the Ramada on Public Square, Wilkes-Barre. If you would like to give me a call I will give you the details of the President who you need to talk to about joining.
My cell phone number is 570-332-7069.
