Hello the smart people of the community,

My name is roy I live in Vegas NV and I’m tired of paying rent and not seeing any Financial freedom on the horizon. My wife and I saved 40k with time and we want to start invest in Real estate, Vegas is super expensive and I feel that we won’t get our money worth here. My question to you all is what are your criterions or what is your way to search for places to invest outside of your own state?

Thank you all🙏🏼
