A lot of investors based in markets like California and New York are choosing to purchase their investments OOS in the Midwest because of the affordability and numbers making more sense.

Prices in Columbus are still low enough to find 1% rule deals and there's a ton of appreciation happening in this market as well. I actually moved from Florida to Columbus for the real estate. I saw how fast the city was growing and decided to make the jump.

If you live in Cleveland (a cash-flowing market), I wouldn't look OOS at another pretty similar market.

I'd be glad to connect you with my go-to PM.

Hey Tiffany, finding the right contractors is crucial to completing successful BRRRRs, I'd love to help.

Welcome to BP Cole! 

With experience in construction and sales, you'll definitely be able to use those skills to your advantage when doing value-add deals.

The better the deal is, the easier it will be to do the BRRRR method and you can find some of the best deals off-market, so it's important to build a solid network and create deal flow so you can see as many opportunities as possible.

Hey Kemi, 

I would start with something either turnkey or light value-add, so you can start forming your boots on the ground team with less pressure and risk. Once you feel you've built a strong team with your first property and have solid systems in place, I would then start buying more aggressively and taking on bigger projects.

I suggest reading this BP article on the core 4.
