How to invest $100k for my first investment property
Hi! I've saved up $100k and am looking to invest the money in real estate. I currently live in Los Angeles and am not so excited to invest nearby because of the high prices and unfavorable laws towards land lords. Additionally, if I were to invest in Southern California, I most likely would not be able to afford anything in a safer community. Thus, I am debating whether to invest out of state or keep saving up.
I have some family in Boise, Idaho and have heard great things about the growing community. I was thinking to invest in a multifamily property, like a duplex or triplex in the $500-600k price range. For those familiar with this market, is this a normal price to expect? I've done some quick searches on Zillow and this seems to be relatively realistic. What are some things I need to know going forward? Thank you all!
