Getting Started in Greenwood Indiana
Hello everyone! I am a new investor from Greenwood, IN. I have not bought my first property yet but my main interest is in Buy and Hold properties and the long term wealth it can provide. I would love to be able to invest somewhere close to home around the Greenwood/Whiteland area but it seems like most of the properties I find are out of my price range. Which has led me to start looking at the Beech Grove area which scares me in some aspects because there are some rough neighborhoods as you get closer to Indy. I would love to hear some advice on how other people found a farm area that worked best for them starting out and I am excited to meet more people here on BP!

@Daniel Fenton I agree Fountain Square is done unless you know someone and it's off market. The area between State St. and S Keystone Ave. on Prospect has potential but I wouldn't dare buy east of that.
Beech Grove is just... meh... in my opinion. Nothing exciting about that neighborhood but it's a safe play.
