Getting ready to start investing in RE

[Ariel G.]

Hey guys,

For the past few months I have studied a lot about RE and the more I research the more I lean towards investing outside of California. I've been considering buying a multiunit (2 to 4 units) as a rental investment somewhere where cash flows properties are easier to find. Currently looking in Kansas, Indiana and Ohio, but still haven't discard the idea of finding something close to Los Angeles. I have about 65k in cash to invest out of state and if decide to invest in LA I have a partner willing to join the venture with an equal investment.

Do you guys have any suggestions on other cities to invest in rental properties around my budget?

Experiences starting investing small remotely?

Experiences investing in upcoming areas in LA?

Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated!
