Ive been lookIng to get Into out of state real estate InvestIng. so Im Trying to find and understand what are some popular markets to to target other then my home of Pittsburgh pa.

I prefer old school but I am fully aware that is far too much work for todays arm chair investors.one issue in the US in many markets a significant amount of tenants do not have checking accounts and never will.. either they are un trusting of banks or bounced too many checks.. in the US bank system if your a habitual bouncer of checks your SSN will get flagged and you will no longer be able to open a checking account.. that's why buying money orders is so popular in the US>. 

If the home is in a popular market and competitively priced, there is a chance you will be receiving 100+ messages a day. 

I have a mid-high end house I've had in a popular area in an allegedly hot market, but it's unsold after 5 months, and I'd love some fresh eyes for a second opinion.Are there any flippers in the area that would be willing to spend an hour (paid) to give their tips to help move it? 

Ive noticed that investing is gaining popularity for people my age, but most steer towards stocks/bonds.

Anyone that reads my posts knows I'm not one for the hard sell,  but I think credit where credit is due, and I know the BP community is always interested in information about on-the-ground changes in popular RE markets.Thanks to you and @Caleb Heimsoth , as always, for your input!

This included a popular name in this area that I see on BP all the time.So keep in mind.

@Mo Farraj MF is very popular and my preference too.

But, mixed use is always popular.

Because there is a popular website called Nextdoor that allows realtors to buy or sponsor a zipcode.
