@Susan Tan you may also have lending options in the Houston area that offer 100% LTC financing for rehab projects.

Do you offer mentorship/coaching in real estate investment?

These cities all offer solid fundamentals in rental markets.

@Matt SchreiberWe always joke, "if you pay cash, everything cash flows"....There are still opportunities out there and we've been able to get way off of asking for clients here in Reno, NV with the right seller and right offer. 

The views are breathtaking and offer some of the most dramatic combinations of beaches, dunes, rivers, lakes and mountains.

No need to go through all that work, expense and permits for gas (unless the utility or state is offering a grant). 

We got one offer late last year, still listed for sale but content to keep operating and cash flowing Lessons learned?

Charlotte, NC, and its surrounding areas continue to offer exciting opportunities for real estate investors.

Jonathan Having worked most of those markets (Detroit included), I'd say most all of them will offer investors a very similar return.

Due to our love of traveling and hating the negatives that LTR brings along, we prefer STR and offering the same memorable experiences to travelers that we have experienced when traveling.
