Looking for a few new potential markets
Hi everyone,
My wife and I have been saving up to make our first move into real estate investing together. Our plan is to purchase a buy-and-hold property with long term renters. We are looking for properties under $300k and with Living in southern California, local property prices are a little too high so we decided our move should be out of state. We’ve began our research but keep going in circles. With so many options, it’s hard to know which city/state is best to make a move in. So I figured I’d ask the forum for some options.
What are some good markets for us to begin looking into? Any and all advice is welcome. Thanks in advance!

Hi Rosario, I have found value investing in Cleveland, OH because it is home to Cleveland Clinic, lot of good neighborhoods, landlord friendly laws, stable appreciation and good cash flowing properties. There are also abundant opportunities for small multi family and SFH.
I have been able to scale up to 12 doors in 2 years so definitely recommend this area. Feel free to reach out and we can discuss.
