Narrow in on a market that fits what you are looking for and then from there build your team in that market. You can find a lot of the people you are looking for on BP as others have mentioned. 

That seems to be the common factor everyone has been mentioning so far! I am definitely looking into building a team before moving forward.

I need some BRRRR advice !

I live in Miami so starting to invest in properties that are local will not be the best move. I read into BRRRR in Ohio. What should I know before I start investing out-of-state? BTW I have 0 experience

 ALL you need to do is connect with those that do have experience and provide rentals to OOS cash buyers,, 

BTW, I live in FL, and do all my business in OH, , 


 Thanks for sharing that ! I'm in Miami so investing here will not be the smartest move for someone starting out. Any tips on how you manage all of your Ohio rentals while living in Florida? 

Quote from @Account Closed:

Determine your buying criteria. What is your budget? Do you solely want a cash flowing rental, or are you looking for long-term appreciation? What kind of rental will you be looking to do (short-term, medium-term, long-term, etc.)? What tenants will you target? Once you can answer all these, and develop a long-term plan, pick a market that accommodates your goals as well as your budget and criteria. Cleveland is a great marking to get a cash flowing single family or multi family at an affordable price. Columbus has some expensive, high appreciation areas, but also offers lower price points where rentals can cash flow. Once you hone in on 1-2 markets, develop a team within that market. 


 This is great starting point for me ! I plan on doing all cash, looking at houses under $100k with $50k-ish in rehab with the goal of both cash flowing rentals and long-term appreciation. Definitely helps me figure out a starting point. I'm going to be looking into Cleveland because that seems to be a good fit. What you do think about Shaker Heights though? :)

Quote from @Ran Iarovich:

I would establish a team as soon as possible. Also start listening to BiggerPockets podcasts pertaining to your situations. Above all, I recommend you read this book that David Greene recommends - Long Distance Real Estate Investing by David Greene. Hope this helps! 


 A team of PM, realtor, lenders, contractors.. am I missing any others members? I will deff take your advice and read that book ! anything helps and I'm excited to start this journey, just not really sure where to begin lol

I recommend you read this article on OOS investing. It explains the importance of creating your core four. You will need to get a local, rockstar Realtor, contractor, lender, and property manager.

I invest locally in Columbus, Ohio

 Thank you! I will give it a read ! I heard a lot of positive things about investing in the Mid-west, just trying to figure out if its right for me 

Quote from @Caleb Brown:

I would establish a team in whatever area you choose. With you being OOS you need boots on the ground. Find a trusted GC and PM. I would look more local if you can. Even if you have to go 1-2 hours away, it's better than multiple states. 

Is there a good strategy, resource, or tool that you use when trying to locate a good city/neighborhood for BRRRR?
