I am a newbie from Maryland, and want to say hi to you all. :-)

I found out about BiggerPockets from Brandon Turner's book on rental investing.  I thought I'd introduce myself since I've been lurking on the forums for some time.

I currently own 1 rental property in Silver Spring, Maryland.  I converted the property into a rental after I lived in it for several years.  I am looking to build my rental portfolio by using the stack method as described by Brandon Turner.  

As I'm sure most of you know, the DC area is a rather expensive housing market.  So, I am looking to invest in a more cash-flow friendly part of the country.  I've been looking at Cleveland, Ohio.  But I am not limited to just that area by any means. 

What do you think?  Let me know.

 Welcome to BP. Ive got a bunch of rentals in Silver Spring too. 

If you are looking more towards affordability and cadh flow...why not look to Baltimore instead of Cleveland? If you do, reach out to @Sara Frank, shes an expert in the Baltimore market.
