Testing the market before diving in

Hello BP community,

Ok, I decided to focus on some major towns at Ohio (Akron, Toledo or Youngstown).

What is the next steps ? Looking at property values ? Making contact with investors / contractors / property managers / RE agents in those cities ?

How did you operate when entered a new market ?

Cheers,

Benny

@Benny Gelbendorf Listen to the BP Podcasts. I am up to show 130. I am learning a ton. Engelo Rumora, has an awesome podcast on Show 89. 

I am seeing properties start to stay on the market longer in the Maryland area that is close to Washington DC. Find out from Engelo if this is happening in Ohio. If it is, you may want to wait and learn through the forums and podcasts.
