We chose Shreveport/Bossier-First out of state investment

Hey BP,

We have decided to do our next RE investment out-of-state! We chose the Shreveport/Bossier area since we were stationed there for about 7 yrs so I am familiar with the area.

I'm reaching out to my BP family to see if anyone is currently investing in that market or have in the past, and if anyone have any recommendations/speak on experience working with the property management companies in the area. Also if anyone knows any areas I should absolutely stay away from, that would be helpful. A few areas look good on paper number wise, but I know actual performance will not always be as good. I prefer to invest around the base or hospitals/colleges.

I've already started taking action! I've done as much research as I can on my own and already started making offers. I'm doing my best to avoid analysis paralysis! I figure the best way to learn is to just do it, make mistakes and don't make the same mistake twice.  

Thanks in advance for the support!

@Jeromy Jordan congrats on taking action! I have property in Shreveport that’s managed by a PM. Have you closed your first deal?
