I really appreciate all the advice I'm receiving, im sorry for not clarifying but I live in Los Angeles right now, I have just been placed in permanent disability so I need the most relaxing environment I can get, I have seen Michigan and its seems peaceful and a lot of wooded areas to have a home in. I hate the fast paced life I have lived my whole life here in Los Angeles, I know with the real estate it might become a little fast paced but more to my liking. I don't really mind the travel to Indianapolis but I do recognize that having property close to home is a big convenience. I looked into Indianapolis as a great city to invest in do to my living In L.A. experience, It might seem like a weird formula but I base it on local pro teams. when it was in the 90's the housing here was amazing, very affordable but once the year 2000 hit, the prices started sky rocketing. I read an article a while back about how if a local sports team win a championship in their sport, the city has nationwide sometimes worldwide media, publicity, and tourism. pretty much a gold mine for investing, the Lakers ended up winning three championships and so im sure you guys know that L.A. is a horrible place to invest now since its at pretty much its marketing peak in real estate, I feel Indianapolis is heading that way with the pacers and im scared of missing out on a opportunity of making a extra cash do to distance, I find myself in a great dilemma and need all the help I can get. Really much appreciated.
