Do you guys invest in suburbs??
Are there investors there making suburbs work? I feel like when I am here on BP and listen to the BP podcast, as well as talk to other friend investors, they are all in well known popular cities, or very proximal suburbs. I understand people are always going to need houses in the suburbs, but I am just in my head that I wouldn't be able to make investing work. For me, I want to invest in Northern Philly Suburbs. While still very close to Philadelphia, I am just telling myself "Oh this isn't a place to invest because these are just random suburb towns." I understand that there are people there right now who are renting so there is obviously some market, but are suburbs something other investors are making work?
I am looking for you guys in the BP to tell me if I am being thinking about this all wrong, or can I make things work in suburbs? I just don't want to derail myself from wanting to invest because of this excuse! I am excited to start with a House Hack this year and just keep rolling from there! And I really want to make the suburbs work FYI!
Thank you for any and all input!!
