Newbie in Denver, CO

[Amanda Young]

Hi BP! I've been a BP member for awhile, read books and listened to the podcasts, and now ready to dig in. I'm looking to do buy-and-hold investing in the Denver metro area, ideally multi-family, but at this point, I'm just ready to make that first purchase (and make the mistakes that go along with it) to get started.  

What areas and strategies have you found work best in this area?  I had thought originally long term rental, but the more I read the forums on Denver market, it seems like short/medium term are the way to go?  What areas are people finding the most success in this strategy?  Just when I think I've narrowed down my strategy, I get caught up in more questions (doubts?), so any input would be greatly appreciated! Curious to hear what has worked well with other in Denver metro! Thanks!
