I've only been investing since late 2020 in midwest markets (Detroit and Memphis), but I would be happy to connect and knowledge share if you are interested.That would be fantastic.

We found an off market cabin in the Smoky Mountains, and it's a fantastic deal.

That was a fantastic analysis, would love to pick your brain sometime, I am fairly new and would love the insight!

Chicago has a fantastic group of investors you can network with.

Orlando is a fantastic STR market from what I've heard.

The jobs are fantastic and being located near the heart of these communities is even better, but the areas are still challenged and there is still little appetite or demand from locals to own in these areas either as investors or owner occupants.From 2007 to really 20011/2012 it was not so much that the rents dropped because of value, it was the challenge of being able to get a qualified resident into a property and keep them there.  

Fantastic to see posts like these.

That is a fantastic return for our area.  

Mark Weeks is a fantastic attorney, but I like getting a little bit more attention and building more a relationship with these folks.

But one we rehabbed/flipped for +$80k net, and the other is a fantastic town home site overlooking downtown that I'll either develop myself or flip to a builder for $40k or so net (we've currently got the existing structure rented to be cash flow positive and bide us some time during the redemption period to decide).
