Agree - before your interview, because the recruiter will set a target level for your interviewers and they tend to anchor on that unless it's way off. Also, you want to make sure that you are interviewing for a role that's an appropriate level.

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?
