Hello everyone. I am a new out-of-state investor that just closed on the second property in the Indianapolis area. I listed some of the reasons why I think investing in Indy is a good idea. I am sure this question been asked probably hundreds of times but curious to see what other Indy investors are thinking right now. Thank you! 

1) Diverse employment (government, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and many other industries)

2) Steady population growth in both the city of Indianapolis/Indianapolis metro area.

3) Landlord friendly laws (never tested this myself but I heard it to be true). 

4) Decent cash flow and appreciation (a reasonable amount of inventory that cash flows and can reach the 1% rule)

Hello Bigger Pockets Community, 

I know some of you may be really busy building your real estate career so this will only take a few minutes to read. My name is Matthew. I live in the Indianapolis area and looking to start my investing career. I am currently a junior at Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis. I am looking for advice on how to start my investing career. I have been reading about how to invest in real estate. The two books I have read are The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner, and The ABC's of Real Estate Investing by Ken McElroy. Along with reading those two books I have watched countless number of YouTube videos and a few podcast. 

I am looking to start my investing career by buy and hold single family homes. While being a college student, unfortunately I do not have the money to buy any properties yet. I would just like some advice on what else I can do to learn more about the market and learn more about the process of investing. Along with any advice on a way I can start my investing career. Honestly any advice will do.

I totally understand if some of you are too busy to respond, but even a one- or two-line response would really make my day. 

Thank you for your time, 

Matthew
