Welcome to Bigger Pockets Tannia!

If you’re looking to invest in your backyard, it helps to network with as many locals in the industry as you can. A great way to start is by attending RE events and joining a local investors association. You can usually find some events by doing a simple google search.

I like working with lenders who are familiar and reputable in the market you are investing in. They actually have a pulse on what's going on and also have solid connections that could be useful on your journey.

I like the west side of Cleveland. Look into neighborhoods like Jefferson, West Park and Boulevard, Brooklyn Center, Old Brooklyn, and Newburgh Heights.

I suggest working with an investor friendly agent so you can get the right guidance!

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.

Welcome to Bigger Pockets Andrew!

Bigger Pockets is a great place to learn and connect with fellow investors.

If you’re looking to invest long distance, I definitely recommend building your core-4 team. This team consists of an Investor Focused Agent, Lender, Contractor, and PM.

Read this article on the "core 4". It explains the team that you should develop to have a strong foundation under you while investing remotely.
