Hey guys.

I am an interested in buy and hold investing but not quite sure which niche best suits this type of strategy. How can one decided on on which niche to use when they are still starting out as an investor? 

I would really appreciate it if you can share how you came about developing a niche for your investment. I am all ears, or rather, all eyes since I will be reading your response to this post lol. 

Thank you. :)

We do incredibly well with C-class properties in Indianapolis. There's a great price-to-rent ratio here. Proper rehabs, combined with great management, allows us to consistently make returns of 12-17% after all expenses. We typically buy only SFH's and Duplexes. We are all about cash-flow....we are not that concerned about appreciation, although we get some, as Indy is experiencing a lot of gentrification.
