Ann Arbor- Surrounding Markets

[Nikolai Saporoschetz]

Hello everyone! I am new to BP and the Ann Arbor area and am motivated to get started real estate investing with a house hack. After doing some research it has become clear that the Ann Arbor market is much more of an appreciation play than a cash flow play. I am more so interested in a buy and hold property that generates cash flow. Are there certain towns around Ann Arbor that would be more suitable to this goal? From what I have seen, Brighton and Hamburg seem like potential fits. Any resources or contacts for learning more would be much appreciated. Hope everyone has a great week!

Thank you!
