Why Do You Invest in Mississippi & Jackson?

[Lauren Hogan]

BiggerPockets! I'm working on building a landing page for Mississippi and the city of Jackson. Would anyone be willing to share why you invest in the state and/or the city? What makes your state and city so wonderful for investors?

I was in property management in Jackson for about ten years before moving out of state for a career in education. I just returned to Jackson after 30 years gone and want to get started again with investment properties (primarily buy-and-hold or rehabbing and reselling to help people get their own home). I love Jackson and have great hopes for its future. I want to give back to the City that gave me so many good memories. There are many good people here, some of whom have not had the blessings I've known so I want to help them by providing safe, attractive, and affordable housing. I'm not trying to be a millionaire; I just want to make a living while helping others do the same in this great City.
