Hi Jonathan, Thank you for your thoughtful reply and advice! You're absolutely right—agents will always say their area is the best, which is why I appreciate hearing different perspectives and the reasoning behind them.

I came up with these markets based on research into affordability and population growth trends. I don’t personally know anyone in these areas, nor have I lived there, but I’m open to visiting to get a better feel for the markets and make connections.

Hi everyone,

My name is Celine, and I live in Los Angeles. I've been learning about real estate investing and am ready to take action on my first out-of-state property using the BRRRR method (with plans for short-term rentals). I have enough cash to invest and am considering cities like Indianapolis, IN; Cincinnati, OH; Cleveland, OH; Atlanta, GA; and Charlotte, NC.

I’m looking to purchase houses around $300K, with the intention of fixing them up. For experienced out-of-state investors, where have you invested? Which cities and areas do you think have the greatest potential for appreciation?

Thanks in advance for sharing your insights!
