Hi Everyone,

I've been a member for a little while, but have mostly done used it for learning up until this point, but am getting to the point where I want to be more active and am working towards my first buy and hold investment.  House prices have skyrocketed where I live, since we bought in 2011, so we will be looking likely out of state for our first, and will probably be going the turnkey route.  Been doing a lot of research on different companies and markets and am trying to do a little more due diligence to narrow down to exactly who we want to go with.  Really liking the Dallas and Houston markets, but also considering Kansas City, MO and possibly Indianapolis.  Will be definitely be making a trip once we narrow it down.  Any advice from people with experience in the above markets, or companies within those markets is greatly appreciated.  Thanks,

Brett Ahern

@Brett AhernI am investing in Kansas city so you could always ask me questions about the bad areas and rental amounts for the working class areas.
