@Mitchell T., I’ve been traveling around the Americas the past year (mainly Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay). Originally from Florida, but most recently was living in NYC. 

I would think about how much you want to spend, how much time you can commit, and how competitive you want the market to be.  The more competitive the more potential buyers, but also the more people you will be competing against to get deals. 

Maybe, a second-tier city in a popular state (think Texas and Florida) or a large city in a less popular state (think Alabama or MIssisssippi).  There is information online about cities that have the most flipping activities and cash buyers that should give you a good idea of maybe a popular area.

I think most importantly, is building a buyers list so you know what kind of properties to focus on.  Maybe partner with someone first couple deals to get your feet wet.

I'm not experienced in this, just interested in doing it as well so take my advice with a grain of salt.

I'm interested... not currently living in the area, but am hoping to move there in the near future :-)

any thoughts on this property

@Myka Artis , I'm curious about your experience in Florida.  Any setbacks or challenges?  About how much do you make per unit?  Looking into trying it as well and would love some feedback and insight.

If someone were to move to the midwest to start investing in real estate there, what city would you suggest they move to and why?  

according to Webster, Retired :"withdrawn from one's position or occupation : having concluded one's working or professional career"

My point is that the article title is very clickbaity and somewhat inaccurate... but maybe it's just me :-) 

I can appreciate someone who steps outside of their comfort zone.  Don't mean to cause an issue.  Best of luck!  

Misleading to say that you "retired".... you basically bought a vacant, speculative lot in the Bahamas...
