Buying in Spokane, Washington

[Leslie Longworth]

Good morning!  I live in LA and I've been researching various local markets to purchase my first investment property.  Inglewood is very hot right now, but with the spiraling prices, I would only be able to afford a serious "fixer" which isn't in my wheelhouse.  I like a few areas around downtown LA, but I've started looking at Spokane, Washington too.  I've been a few times, and I really love downtown Spokane. Does anyone have any thoughts on this market?  I know someone who lives there, and she says they're meeting a lot of people these days who are moving there from LA. 

Thank you in advance for taking a moment to respond with any and all advice!
