Why I Finally LEFT NYC! Hint: It Was too EXPENSIVE! Lifelong New Yorker Leaves for Cheaper City?

Why I left NYC as a lifelong New Yorker...it's not what you think!
So many have fled New York due to the rising cost of housing. I'll be back to own property in NYC, but first, I had to take a detour.

I left NYC, but it’s not what you think 😉! To get what you want, sometime we’ve just gotta take a little detour. Excited to be back and show what I’ve been up to.

[@Chicago48]

You have different people and cultures in Chicago too. And Baltimore is more crime ridden than NYC. Just curious, you don't mention the investment cost and how much it cost to upgrade the house.

[@NyasiaC]

Yes each city has its challenges and benefits. I’ll be going over all of the numbers and renovations in upcoming videos starting next week for each of the houses 😉

[@TravelerSanna]

My Jewish great grandparents and my West Indian grandparents invested in Manhattan real estate when they came to the United States. They both lived among the people who rented from them. Their hard work and sacrifices while they pursued their own personal and professional goals made all the difference in the lives of their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. I am so happy for you. Be blessed. ❤❤

[@NyasiaC]

@@TravelerSanna What a great sacrifice they made to secure a better future for their family! That’s exactly my goal. A little sacrifice now for a lot of freedom later.

Why are you videos RIGHT on time. My husband and I own a few properties in the District of Columbia. Before buying another property in the District, we both checked out Baltimore and feel in love. Due to the commute, we decided not to do it but have learned we totally could. Interested to learn more about your flip - and exploring if some of what you share might work for us!

[@NyasiaC]

Congrats on your investment journey so far! I thankfully still live in NYC and just Invest in Baltimore. I went back and forth while the renovation projects were happening because I wanted to learn the entire process. It's about a 3 hour drive for me. The lower barrier on entry in Baltimore is what makes it appealing for investing, but not sure if it would be a downgrade for you as far as quality of life if you actually lived there instead of DC. Especially if you can afford DC! I bought 4 different houses in 4 different neighborhoods. The flip was in Butchers Hill. Can't wait to show the entire process!

[@wpeters4361]

I left NYC (Manhattan) in 2020, just needing a break from the pandemic craziness. I'd lived in Manhattan for 20 years. Meant to go back (and I do really miss it), but watching from "afar" (Midwest), I don't think I could afford to live there anymore, and with the crime spike it just doesn't seem like the pre-pandemic NYC I remember.

[@NyasiaC]

I understand why people leave. I believe there are more people here now pre 2020. I chose to stay living in NYC and invest in real estate in Baltimore. Don't plan on leaving NYC any time soon...but wanted to make money in other places.

I'm in reverse culture shock at the unbelievable prices of everything!

I will then look at real estate opportunities. My family was in Real Estate and I wish I had pursued it earlier. I look forward to your videos.

[@NyasiaC]

Thank you so much and congrats on your upcoming new journey! Columbia MD is HOT right now. Taxes in Baltimore City are a killer, but has opportunity. Outside the city has value due to lower taxes amongst other things. There’s no age limit on success, so I’m sure you’ll be fruitful!

@@NyasiaC Thanks for the tax info. Yes, outside B'More would be my preference. I'm also looking in other areas for investment and just commented on your CA land video. A few years ago I looked into CA but it would be for investment and I'd need to decide what to do with it. I can't do desert living full time, been there done that. Will you obtain your RE license in MD. I understand your concerns over cost. I have a few friends who moved into NJ and Philly and commute into NYC as needed. Have a blessed week and keep on pursuing those dreams.

@@agl5132 I personally still live in NYC, but just decided to invest in other places.

I don’t personally know the other markets in MD as far as living, mainly numbers for investing, but there’s so many neighborhoods to choose from I’ve learned. I put my California project to rest for now, but plan to go back when i have an already built house to renovate.

Looking forward to some positive content about my city! I'm already trying to figure out WHERE you bought. My guess is Pigtown (or SWeBo in general). I was a city resident for 19 years. Sold my house in 2021 (at the top!) And am very much enjoying being back in the county in the house I grew up in (inherited). Baltimore isn't the complete 💩hole it's made out to be. Looking forward to this series. My missed opportunity was a (2002) 25k 300ish sf condo in the Belvedere. But, I don't think I would have been happy THAT deep in the city. My house was single family and the city/county line ran down the street. My neighbor to the right was county. Lol. Belated welcome to town.

[@NyasiaC]

I bought 4 houses in 4 different neighborhoods 😉. Baltimore definitely has its challenges like any other city, but it has positive opportunities as well.

[@sallyjohnson9504]

I'm from NYC and owned a brownstone in Brooklyn with my father we sold it and that was my introduction into real estate investing. I also went into wholesaling and fix and flips later on. I currently live in Dallas, TX and will be starting my own real estate syndication company buying and owning multi family and other commercial real estate asset classes as well collaborating and doing real estate development projects. You might want to look into apartment syndication.

[@NyasiaC]

Congrats on your deals! I have wholesaled and flipped as well. My current goal is small multifamily that I own individually, but that could change in the future. I know syndicators are hurting right now with these high interest rates, but hopefully that'll change in the near future.

[@sallyjohnson9504]

@@NyasiaC I’m not sure that syndicators are hurting right now. I disagree. Unless there are syndicators who know little to nothing about the market but that is very rare. So far what I know brokers want to make sure you have an investor or guarantor to ensure that they can help your business to make sure you don’t fall behind your mortgage payment. Also it depends on the property as well. Right now industrial real estate portfolio doing better numbers than multi family. Other options such as student housing or senior retirement facilities are doing well too. Especially when you are reaching out to investors to raise capital or reaching out to lenders for a loan who most likely checking the underwriting and doing the due diligence making sure the numbers make sense. If you are a new operator in syndication, generally it’s good to partner with experience general partner who can assist on helping the syndication business and bringing investors onboard or help purchasing property through a lender. As well as being a passive investors or invest in multi family REITS. You can start as an active investor as well. Alternative there are also the creative finance to purchase off market multi family properties from the seller. I will most likely start with smaller units and work my way up. I do have strong background financial investment and economics. I am very aware of the current trends in the market right now. Important numbers to keep in mind investing in multi family properties or other commercial real estate assets NOI (Net Operating Income), Cash on cash returns, Cap rates knowing the difference between high and low cap rates. Most investors prefer high cap rates due to higher returns and value add opportunities on a property, and the IRR (Internal Rate of Return). Definitely know how to analyze real estate financial model, underwriting, and pro forma. There are a modeling as well stick the basis and continue work your up. Additionally, understanding market analysis, debt, equity, deal structuring, cost segregation real estate law and acquisitions. I can talk about this all day. Oh yeah economic indicators. Don’t want to bored you but I hope this information helps.

Congratulations fellow New Yawker and Great Dane. I moved to Philadelphia and want to return to NYC when I’m able to live in the property I want. ❤

[@NyasiaC]

Thank you my fellow alum! You can do it! I have no plans on leaving NYC any time soon…so investing out of state was the perfect solution.

I grew up in the Bronx in a six story tenement, (I think all buildings over 5 stories have to have an elevator), with big apartments. I went to college in LA, then lived in TN for a few years, moved back to NY and babeee... One, I never realized how cold it was, once you leave and come back you feel it. Two, I learned life didn't have to be a struggle, no roommates needed, I can live alone in a very nice place, no problem. I moved back to LA, to New Orleans and have been here for the past 8 years. It reminds me of NYC bc there's so much to do, and it's walkable, but unlike NYC it's warm about 10 months out of the year and the people are friendly. I smile at strangers now... never even thought to do that back home. I'm glad I grew up there but the financial and mental cost of living there are not worth it.

I went to Johns Hopkins. I almost bought a place in Baltimore, but got turned away because of the uptick in crime. I really want to return, I think I will soon! Great video.

[@NyasiaC]

Thank you! Yes it is quite a challenging place to navigate. I still live in NYC and decided to only invest in properties in Baltimore and rent them to tenants.

❤❤❤ This is awesome. Can you explain the retirement plan again to cash out yet avoid personal gains tax please?

[@NyasiaC]

My goal is to do a cash out refinance of 80% of its value. Put the properties in a trust/estate, and hand off to family once I’m ready. That way, I’ve taken all of the money somewhat tax free.

Thank you!

As a fellow realtor that owns two investment properties in Baltimore near John Hopkins that I rent out via midterm rentals I approve this message. You go girl let's get this money I've had my Airbnb since 2020 and 2021 and they have been the biggest blessing. I left corporate America after the cervical spine surgerythis past October and life is good. Thank you for sharing your story more people need to know about the power of investing in real estate.

[@NyasiaC]

So proud of you! One of my properties is in Upper Fells and one of my flips was in Butchers Hill. That’s why I wanted to film and show this journey…investing is so important for our future! Send me an email if you’d like to be featured in a video touring one of your Baltimore properties and talking about your story. They need to see more of us women out here doing this 😉

[@kristinrodriguezrealtordmv3434]

Thank you so much and I am very proud of you as well. Those are two of my favorite neighborhoods. I love the brown stones in Butchers Hill. Kudos to you for renovating them. I bought both of mine newly renovated and the investor I purchased them from ended up becoming a client of mine. One day I may renovate a property, but I cannot wait to watch your journey!
