They are into property management - they are selling turn key properties and also managing them. They are huge in Indianapolis but also have a presence in those other markets I mentioned. It has been hard to get much info on them. 

Has anyone done business with an Infinity Investing real estate partner called Alpine Capital Solutions? They are in Indy and a few other markets (Kansas City MO, Charlotte NC, and Idaho Falls). What has your experience been? Are they legit? What is the quality of their work? Please advise. 

Thanks everyone for your insights. I will look into these markets. 

Thank you. Are there specific towns you recommend in NH? I was considering NH but mostly looking at Concord, Manchester, and Nashua. I am also open to ME markets but unsure about rental occupancy there and if most people own vs. rent. 

The math just doesn't work in my favor given that I'm not flipping a property. Either the condo fees are way too high or the location is not ideal and the rent is significantly lower than the mortgage. I'll bleed money. Maybe after I have solid footing in real estate, I may have the capital to invest locally. Right now, the math is not in my favor. 

Thank you. I think the cost of entry in MA is very high right now. Not sure how long MA properties will continue to appreciate over time. I was also looking at Canton and other areas in MA but again, much higher entry point than up-and-coming neighborhoods in TX. Also, Texas is regarded as a landlord-friendly state. The other reason is that I want turn-key properties and not one that requires work as I am very inexperienced and do not want to take on a project. We live in a good neighborhood and don't plan to move right now. Any recommendations on local areas I should look into further? 

Hello, 

I am from Massachusetts and don't think it is wise to invest locally for the first investment property.  We own the house we live in and it is worth more than 1M. We do not wish to move anytime soon (at least for the next 5+ years). I am looking for long-term investment property with the potential for appreciation over the next 5+ to 10+ years and not necessarily focused on cash flow and retirement. We are typical W2 workers in corporate America (at least for now). Although cash flow is not the primary concern, I do not want to own a vacant house. How can one balance the two? Are there markets where I can have the assurance of rental demand and possible appreciation over a long period? I was looking at duplex/single-family options in San Antonio and Houston. I also considered North Carolina but there is an abundance of new development there making it too competitive. I am new to Real Estate investing. Any pointers on the best places to consider (outside of the northeast)?  

Thank you!!!
