buying properties in rust belt out of state

[Stephen Moore]

i've noticed through the forums on here that some say dont buy in the rust belt for whatever their reasons are,and some are,i would like to know everyones opinion whether its negative or positive on buying multifamilies in these states of ohio,pennsylvannia,indiana,and michigan and being from out of state,reason being im finding quite a bit of deals their and some cheap prices.Anyone actually buying at all? im sure theres someone thats gobbling up properties liek theirs no tomorrow..ill be flying up there and getting a bird eye view for myself in the next few months...reason im asking is because im wanting to buy myself and i know of another young investor thats bought quite a bit of properties for himself in cincy and has moved fulltiem from san diego to cincy.
