Dear BP members, I would like to start out of state investing and i though North Carolina is a good place (due to family and other reasons)

I am looking for Buy and Hold rentals with 20% down. SFRs with 3/2/2 under 200k. I am looking at Raleigh, Durham, Cary in North Carolina. 

Need your suggestions on 

1.Particular areas that i should be looking at in these cities. 

2.Areas with better schools

3.Which city is better among the 3 (Raleigh, Durham, Cary)

Since it is out of state for me, any suggestions on good property management company.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Varma, I live in Durham and have lived in Raleigh as well.  There's no definitive answer as to which area is best.  The entire triangle area is filled with opportunity.  So starting out you can choose whichever area is closest to you or that you personally like most. Hope this helps.
