Ready to invest in first property rental

Posted

I’m just starting out in real estate and ready to buy my first property to rent out,

I’m in Los Angeles and was first thinking about Airbnb condo at the Palms place, Trump or even a sfh to rent long term.

I don’t see too many investors bringing up Vegas. More in the midwest.

I was thinking Vegas because it’s relatively closer to manage when necessary.

I realize there isn’t any 1% or 2% rule in LV.

Thank you

@Stuart Bartle
If you are looking at investing out of state it doesn't matter how close the property is to you. Even if it's in Vegas or Flordia it's still out of state and will require a property manager for the day-day operations. Focus on finding a market that fits what you are looking for then build a team to help the property succeed.
