Looking to connect with Canadian Real estate investors in the US

[Arti Sood]

Hi everyone, 

I'm an investor from Canada and I'm looking to break into the US markets. The Canadian market has been out of hand for the past few years. After being priced out of multiple provinces, I've decided to look at investing in the US. I have a few states that I'm interested in(Texas, Iowa) but I'd like to connect with Canadian investors with cross border investing experience. What state would you recommend when you're just getting started?
