Some areas worth looking into:Centrally located neighborhoods like Alhambra and parts of Maryvale still have affordable properties with strong rental demand.West Phoenix (Tolleson, Avondale, parts of Glendale) offers good price points with room for appreciation.South Phoenix is seeing a lot of development and has solid long-term potential.Mesa and pockets of the East Valley can work, especially if you find something that needs light rehab but has strong rental demand.It’s definitely tough to get both cash flow and appreciation in today’s market, but if you’re strategic with your buy, rehab, and financing, BRRRR is still doable in Phoenix.

The fan blows the air from one location up and out of the house.  

Some focus purely on numbers, while others look at long-term value, location trends, or creative financing strategies.For those of you investing in Chicago (or similar markets), whats your mindset when evaluating off-market opportunities?

I am located in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and looking to acquire multi-family properties.

Our home is located in the Fifeville neighborhood near 5th Street.

I'd be crazy to sell the 28277 property because of rate, location, and appreciation.

Bit of a long story, but my partner and I are trying to purchase a property from a family friend of mine and we're having trouble locating the last seller.

It is a great market but highly recommend partnering with an agent who knows the market and has experience dealing with investors as location is key. 

I have been eyeing a few brokerages around that general location and was wondering if anyone familiar with the area had any recommendations regarding which brokerage to pick, as there are quite a few to choose from.
