California Native looking to invest in OOS (Indianapolis)

[Altaf Wahid]

Hi everyone,

My name's Altaf Wahid and I'm based out of Orange County, California. I work full-time in finance for a software company and I'm also working on an MBA part-time (any Trojans out there?). I don't have much experience in real estate other than having worked at a couple of mortgage companies in the past but I've been doing a lot of research on real estate investing over the past month and I'm hoping to get into the market in a couple of months. 

Long-term, I would like to invest mostly for appreciation but for my first property, I'm more focused on cash flow. I'm really interested in purchasing a duplex. One market that I like based on what I've seen in Indianapolis. If there are investors here that have properties in the area, I would love to connect! I would also appreciate any advice you all have to offer.

Thank you!
