If so, this is definitely a route I am exploring.Preferably, I'd like to own the property and create cash flow with the booming rental market due to the oil and gas workers migrating to the area.Also, you said you have a student.

In the Houston area, we're looking at an in-migration of 3 million people in the coming years which, plus continuing strength in oil and gas, could be something of an insulator from the downward pressures everyone has mentioned in this thread.

Hi @Wendell De GuzmanThat's not a lot of information to go on, and you shouldn't focus solely on the cash-flow...There are other factors you should consider:What's the economy like (unemployment, jobs & job growth, business climate, migration, etc.)?

I do not have a lot of money so my intent is to wholesale some properties  in the beginning and migrate my way to flipping. 

Of course there are many factors, but jobs, migration and population rates play a key role. 

It also is allowing us to migrate our office communication off the phone and to email....priceless!

WV has several areas that are promising for investment - but pay attention to demographics and population/migration patterns for an area. 

I'm trying to migrate as many tenants as I can to electronic transfer through attrition but i have alot of existing tenants from recently purchased properties.

Jeff, that is a problem with the current migration to Portland.

Seems to be a migration point for a lot of people from California.
