Investing OOS, first time investor.
With so much information out there, I'm a bit overwhelmed with choosing a market to invest in. I want to invest for cash flow, preferably MF. Seems like OH is very popular right now, but I would assume that means I'm a bit late to the party. If anyone has any recommendations on emerging markets that I can research, that would be very helpful. I just want to choose a place quickly, not necessarily to purchase something immediately, but just so I can begin networking in that area. Thanks!

If you are going MF first time and OOS sametime, IMO you would need to piggyback to make this work without adding all the extra risks. Many OOS buyers end up on the wrong side of the tracks and won't realize it before it is too late. I am sure OH is loaded with them. Your networking idea is great, just add to team one experienced OOS MF investor and not someone who only posts on here to market you something to just make a commission off.
Good luck with your search!
