New Investor, best option before moving?

[Mel Kline]

Hi! 

My husband and I currently live in Michigan, but are thinking of moving to San Antonio, Texas to be closer to family.  We are currently working with a realtor in Michigan to purchase fix and flips and also duplexes to rent out.  We currently live in a fix and flip and are nearing the end of it.  We currently do not have any other properties.

My question/thought is, should we purchase a couple properties here, before we move, that we could rent out and have property managed by a company?  We would spend about $70k on each property and rent would be around $1200 a month.  Property Management company charges 6%.

Or should we wait until we move to San Antonio, Texas in the next few months and purchase rental properties/ fix and flips there.  The thing is, We know nothing about the market down there. My husband was a realtor here in Michigan and knows the market here.  

Thanks in advance for your help community!!!!
