We are leaning more toward Johnson City just due to location, size, and economy/industries that are there.

Personally, I wouldn’t invest in a market where appreciation averages only 2%.

I am not an expert here but my thought is that you would learn a lot by getting your license and have more credibility in the industry at large so if your time and finances allow- get that license:)

I've owned long term, short term and commercial (industrial) properties in the past, but never anything out of Province/State.Thanks so much!

I worked with an agent who was okay but I became an agent myself because I became so interested in the industry and want to help other people build wealth and become investors themselves.

I am looking to connect with people in the industry who are proactive and looking for their next project.
