These areas offer much more affordable properties, which means they can get into the game with a lower initial investment while still tapping into growing local economies and strong rental demand.I always suggest starting small, maybe with a single-family home or a 2-4 unit property, and hiring a property manager to take care of the day-to-day.

I am a property owner in central Texas of a multi-family home.

For every $100 million in public subsidies, approximately 1,157 co-living spaces could be created, compared to 313 studio apartments.The Bloomington City Council is reviewing potential ordinance language to facilitate co-living spaces, considering factors like parking, minimum square footage, and the definition of "family" in housing contexts.As real estate investors, it's essential to stay informed about such developments, as they can present new opportunities and models for investment.

Over priced, layout is awkward, junky neighbors, back on market/under contract multiple times, bad photos, bad timing(got buried from other listings, weather occurrence, etc). 

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

I've been fortunate enough to work with a few different property managers, but mostly people my family chose to work with.
