Looking to invest in LR

[Stanislav Perevozchikov]

Hi everyone, I'm new to both REI (been educating myself for a while now, but haven't pulled the trigger yet) and Little Rock. Currently considering a few markets across the US - it definitely looks like a seller's market as good deals are sparse. This turned me to Little Rock as I see there are a lot more deals for good CoC returns (12-20%). I know appreciation will be minimal in AR and I'm ok with that while I'm building up my RE portfolio.

My goal is to start with a SFH, build a team, create a system in place and then continue building my portfolio by investing in the area. Would love to connect with local agents, PMs, contractors, and other investors. Also, if you can recommend an investor-friendly realtor who works with OOS investors, please do so! Thanks!
