@Auryana Faramarzi you may consider OKC. It's got very approachable price points, positive appreciation (yet low and slow), a super stable market (called recession proof in the last downturn), landlord friendly and it's easy to cash flow!

@Darin A. Scavella Jr just drastically different markets and properties! My comparison was a fully remodeled row of townhouses for only 850k. It's in OKC in a developing area where appreciation is low and slow, but steady. I'm surprised it's still available! What's appreciation like in the Bahamas? 

Exciting that you're developing the syndication! I'm connected with quite a few investors. If anyone mentions syndication on bigger multi I'll send them your way!

@Kesean Diamond Curious what's making you stick to SoCal?

@Moshe Jungreis Value add is tough right now because material costs are unpredictable. Even if you've got a great contractor you'll likely have trouble sticking to a budget. There are hot/in-demand areas within that area code, but buying a property at a low enough cost to have room for immediate return is going to be tough.

@Albert Smolinski There's risk reward ratio here. A new property opens you up to new/additional risk but another tenant paying down an additional mortgage for you will likely have more reward. Consider taking on a low risk property to mitigate?

Thanks for the shoutout Joseph! Remind me how long your wait was with Table? If I remember correctly there's no waitlist because there's an equal playing field created for everyone interested. First come first served on every property!

@Darin A. Scavella Jr Understood! I'm in OKC and there's a 12 unit property for sale now for only 850k, fully remodeled! So of course it's fully market dependent on what time of lending you've got to use where. What's a typical price range on something like that in the Bahamas?

@Keith Chang Jie depending on where you live "house hacking" may be the easiest first step. Look that up and let me know if you have any questions! I help people buy in OKC, but I personally started my portfolio house hacking here! The numbers are incredible for investments/house hacking in OKC, but you may live in a market where it doesn't make as much sense. What city/area do you live in or plan to live/invest in?

@Carly Turow start calling local banks! The smaller more personalized guys will likely give you a bit more guidance than you might get from a big box lender!
