unfortunately I think that, with interest rates where they are, it is basically not possible to meaningfully "cash flow" on a traditional long term rental, in a market you can't personally add any value to, with standard property management.

if you're handy and self-manage, for example, you can keep management and repair costs down that way, but that's obviously not possible from thousands of miles away.  so you'll be paying market for management and repairs and if you go too far below the median in a market you might have heightened wear and tear and vacancy.

is there a market you visit often, or went to college in, or have strong ties to?  i'd pick that way, versus just a random market based on a random median price that you don't know anything about.

hope this helps

I'm a Los Angeles based Realtor w/ 17 years of experience and I am looking to invest out of California.  At this point I would like to keep each purchase under $200k.  Can anyone recommend any markets where one can make a purchase for $200k or less and still have positive cashflow?

Hi Guys,

I am trying to revisit my strategies on investing in Delaware. I would like to know which sites are reliable to do some market research on population growth, and income on zipcodes, and counties in Delaware. I am looking at pockets of areas around Kirkwood highway, Route 13 Newcastle closer to bear which is growing and pockets of Wilmington. What are your thoughts?

I want to start wholesaling real estate in my area, South Texas, but I need help calculating the rehab, do you all have any methods?

 Thanks for your input Bob! Which cities/areas do you suggest? Also, what are your thoughts on Indianapolis or Oklahoma City?

I'm about to buy to 4/3 home that's 2,300 sq ft, built in 1967 and want an experienced real estate investor to evaluate whether it's a good deal.

Please comment below if I can pay you for 1 hour of your time to analyze it.I have full photos/video walkthrough, and also have several contractor quotes.

Good evening! 

I’m exploring investment opportunities in the Poughkeepsie area and have a few questions about some properties I’m considering. Is anyone familiar with the local market and available to chat? 

Thank you!
