Is Arkansas good for multifamily investment properties?

[Brian Thomas]

I'm a first time investor with a limit of about $165k to invest in a multifamily property. I am single and can go to a location where good deals are to be had. Arkansas looks promising, mainly the Little Rock area. Am I off on my assessment?

Hi Brian,

I currently live in Little Rock, and I am also a newbie trying to get into REI and have yet to do my first deal. I have lived in LR for about 5 years and I am originally from Ohio. I am still learning the market here but would also like to acquire a multi-family for my first investment. Let me know if there are any general questions about the area that I can help you with.
