Hey all! I am looking for recommendations for top real estate investing organized social groups in Indianapolis and the northern suburbs. As well as high quality social groups for real estate investing on forums/internet sources. Alongside the bigger pockets community of course! Any suggestions?

Hi everyone,

Alongside being new real estate investor in Indiana, and planning to utilize a buy-and-hold rental property strategy. I'm also a skilled handyman and was considering offering my services to other investors as a separate business venture.

My question is:

• Is combining buy-and-hold rentals with handyman services for other investors a wise approach, or will it spread myself too thin?
• Would other real estate investors in central Indiana be interested in a reliable handyman service specifically catering to rental properties?

I'm eager to learn from experienced investors and determine if this multi-faceted approach is feasible or if it's best to focus on one area initially.

Thank you for your insights!

Hello everyone,

I'm a beginning real estate investor looking to enter the Indiana market with a buy-and-hold rental property strategy. Alongside acquiring rentals, I'm interested in establishing a service-based business within the real estate niche, potentially offering maintenance or renovation services.

To make the most informed decision, I'd appreciate any insights from experienced Indiana investors on:

Top Indiana Cities for Long-Term Rentals: What cities offer a strong rental market with factors like stable vacancy rates, positive cash flow potential, and opportunities for property appreciation?

Locations for Business Growth: Are there specific Indiana cities with a growing real estate market that would be favorable for establishing a service-based business catering to landlords and tenants?

Any advice on these considerations or additional factors I should be aware of would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and expertise!

Thank you @Jake Baker for the insight!
