If you're new to investing in real estate. I will recommend just keep it local.

Pros including but not limited: 

1. you know the area better;

2. you know more people that can help you;

3. easy for you to manage;

4. easier to manage by yourself, you'll also learn more while you managing

There always be new problems or challenges occurring every time you make a new investment in real estate even if you're experienced.

The only cons might be that you have to take lower cash-to-cash ROI on paper compare to other places. The grass always looks greener on the other side.

Experience, cash, equity, leverage, and time, that is all for this business.
