Rentals. Where to buy?

[Esther Budd]

Hi, I am new to this group and to Real State. My husband and I have decided that we want to buy a few rental properties. We are in Utah where the market is extremely high right now so we are considering buying somewhere else. Possibly Texas, Ohio, Florida or Louisiana to mention a few. Where would you say is the best state and city to buy some rentals in order to get a good return? Is this a bad idea? TIA!
