Hey Keenan,

Welcome to Memphis.  I'm from the Sacramento area and started investing in Memphis in 2013.  I sold all of my CA properties, moved to the Memphis area in 2019 and purchased many houses here.  It's definitely more of a street by street market with many good areas. 

One thing that may help is our local REIA, Memphis Investors Group. We are a non-profit group and have a lot of investors from all over. We have agents, contractors, wholesalers, etc. memphisinvestorsgroup.com is the link. Reach out when you have a few mintues. I'd be to chat.

Headed into a new market and loving learning the way things go. I'm a California investor pushing capital into Memphis. Just starting my TN journey and I can tell this is gonna be a fun endeavor. Lots of rehab, lots of potential, and lots of cool stuff to do when I go to see the properties(hahaha). I have a few door in Cali right now but pushing into TN I've put in 8 offers in 3 days with rehab budgets ranging from 20k to 55k. If you're in the Memphis market and want to connect don't be scared to send me a message. Always looking to connect with other like-minded people. 

Hi Martin,  I'm an investment real estate broker in the South Bend, IN area.  This will be my 14th yr in the business and I have client's who are primarily investing from out of the state and country.  I'd love to connect! Best of luck in your journey!

I'm a real estate agent and long term buy/hold investor in Savannah, GA. I was fortunate to meet some phenomenal people in Orlando a few weeks back at BPCON23! I'd love to connect with more like-minded individuals here in the forums.

For those that are also on their REI journey, but didn't have a chance to attend the conference, what is your niche in this market/location?

Hey V.G - You are very smart to be focusing on the Carolinas due to the serious wealth migration that is upon us. I'm a realtor/investor/str specialist in Hilton Head and too have properties in both Beaufort & Charleston, as well as several STR's on HHI.

Both plays are great - Beaufort due to the low acquisition prices & immense appreciation potential. Have you looked into executive leases for your charleston duplex? Might be something worth looking into. I would be happy to also get you up to speed on the opportunities on Hilton Head, as the STR demand rental potential is huge.

Keep it up!
