Northern Indiana Market Analysis

[Julian Pilate-Hutcherson]

My goal is to purchase my first turnkey rental property in the Michiana area during the spring of 2020. 

I'm a huge fan of the direction South Bend is headed. As a graduate of Notre Dame, I've witnessed the development of downtown South Bend firsthand. I've also found that the need for affordable student housing, projected future growth of the medical and food service industries in Michiana, landlord-friendly state laws, and incentives to bring new businesses to the area make South Bend and the surrounding areas a decent first market for me to dip my toes into out-of-state investing. 

For the Indiana investors, what drives you to invest in your respective market?
