New invester looking at multiple markets
Looking for good place for rental properties
We've got a litany of clients picking up properties in the lower value markets that cash flow like crazy. Think - Ohio markets, Indiana markets, southern states that aren't major metro. Lots of opportunity out there!

Columbus, Ohio is a great market to consider if you're leaning towards appreciation. Multiple, billion dollar companies are investing heavy in our area, such as Intel, Google, and Amazon. Which will bring plenty of other investors and general business to the area. I moved here from Florida after seeing the projected growth.

Hey Bernard, I suggest that you take a closer look at Cleveland and Columbus for excellent investment opportunities. In these cities, your financial resources will go a long way enabling you to assemble a diverse multifamily portfolio and initiate a steady stream of income.

I like Columbus Ohio because I see it being one of the biggest metropolitan cities in the next 10-20 years, all signs are pointing here! Population is growing aggressively and jobs are moving here especially with major employers like Intel, Google, Amazon, Nationwide, etc. On top of that, you have one of the biggest and best universities in the world here with Ohio State University. The cost of living is extremely low compared to other cities and you can still many many positive cash flowing and 1% deals here. On top of that, you get great appreciation and very landlord friendly laws. Tons of investors are buying Columbus up! As an investor and agent here, let me know if you have any questions or want to connect

Hey Bernard,
Great to see you're on the hunt for rental property opportunities! There are a ton of factors to consider when looking for the right area—like rental demand, property prices, and cash flow potential.
If you're open to out-of-state options, Indianapolis has been a fantastic market for investors lately. It's a growing city with affordable property prices, strong rental demand, and solid cash flow. I personally work with investors focusing on new construction duplexes here, which offer great returns and minimal maintenance.
Feel free to reach out if you'd like more info on this market or want help narrowing down the best areas for your investment goals!
Best of luck with your search,
Ryan Cheek
I'm seeing Jacksonville FL on the rise right now. Also, if you're interested in any passive investing we have a multifam portfolio in JAX right now with a 29%IRR and 36mo hold as well as some other solid deals.
Hey @Bernard Griffin, great markets along emerald coast of FL. Destin stands out for it's water and beaches. Plenty to choose from Navarre to Panama City.
@Zach S. would love to know more about Jacksonville markets.
We have lots of options in places like South Bend, Birmingham, or Indianapolis. Price points in the $130K for a turnkey property.
Beyond Birmingham, which Aristotle Kumpis just mentioned, there are other markets in Alabama like Tuscaloosa, Montgomery, or Huntsville that are potentially worth checking out as well.
I think it’d be helpful to have more information about your goals and buying criteria first, but I’d say that Tuscaloosa is generally a pretty interesting market. Although it’s only about 60 miles southwest (about one hour’s drive) from Birmingham, it benefits demographically from being the home of the University of Alabama.
UA’s enrollment has doubled since the start of the century, and the college town’s population has increased by 50% over the same period. This means that it’s growing a lot faster than most of the state’s other markets, Birmingham included.
Anyway, I just wanted to put Tuscaloosa on your radar—hope it was helpful!

Cleveland has been the #1 overall rental market for about 10 years last few years in top 3. Forbes had it as # 1 2018 - 19. They were not paying attention as prior we were getting 30 35% net. We are still able to provide our clients with 9 14% NET based on cash purchases as prices have doubled, tripled, quadrupled or much more. 100% hands off. I just picked up another SF all in 75k, rent will be 1500, value about 125k, Duplex all in 90k, rents will be 1800- 2k, value about 135k. Not sure where you can get better deals. I will close next week on another duplex, all in 95k, rents will be 1800- 2k, . If there is a market with better overall #s please let me know, we will build a team there.
BTW, I will sell one of mine, PP 115k, value about 125kish, rented sec 8, 1600, Needs zero repairs, taxes about 1500. Duplex PP 120k, rents will be 1800- 2k, I have as many as you want :)
Good luck

130k how much is the rent? Also, when you say turnkey, new roof, or not older then 7- 8 years, windows, furnace HW tanks, all cosmetic?
Oklahoma - specifically OKC & Tulsa markets.
