New to Arizona market

[Avery Bustamante]

Hi Everyone, new to this forum and looking to break into the AZ market. As I've seen in this forum and through my own research, Arizona is exploding. New tech, investments from large (and new) companies, a massive amount of people moving into the state, etc. My brother has been in AZ for over a decade and he always talks about the growth/potential in the state.  

I'm hoping to acquire a few SFH around Pheonix (Glendale, Chandler, etc.) over the next few years. If anyone has any other recommendations please let me know. I'm in the process of closing on my first rental home in Fresno CA, but redirecting my strategy to a state that's more landlord-friendly (newbie mistake I know). This is a long-term play for me and since I'll be investing from out of state I'd rather stick with SFHs, at least in the beginning.

Hoping to connect, share and learn from everyone here. Have a great day!
