Hi,

I am very new to real estate investment. I am still in the process of understanding how it works but I want to start investing in cash-flow positive properties.

Please advice me on which markets and what kind of properties should I be loving for.

@Roopali Bahal Before getting into the weeds of market and property analysis, you should develop your investment criteria. 

Essentially, what do you want (min. thresholds), how much risk you are willing to take, budget, investment time frame, time commitment and liquidity constraints. Once you have that, it will be easier to pick markets and property types. 

Remember, a deal that might work for someone else might not work for you and vice-versa.
