Compared to Washington, the center of the country will look cheap and rents will be high relative to the price.Why does any property sit on the market? 

Part of my reason for getting into REI is so I can live the wanderer lifestyle while I'm still young enough to do it and enjoy the activities that we love; we have a Northern Lite truck camper and while it's a bit too small for my husband and I, our 2 dogs and cat, it's perfect for traveling up to a couple weeks at a time, which is what we both want to do.Thanks again to everyone for the great advice and warm welcome.

Student rentals are great because you rarely have to worry about vacancy, and you'll get a range of students willing to pay a premium to live in the nicest house off campus vs some students who just want a cheap apartment with their friends.

And it's actually going to make us MORE money with WAY less work and headache 🙏 (I mean we'll still have tenants so its not without headache).I also have 2 littles, whom I homeschool, were just finishing up renovating a school bus, and started a couple businesses, while traveling the country (hippie scientist gone green real estate investor 🤓, still hippie 🌈✌️🚌, with hottie chef husband 👨‍🍳).

The city is going through massive revitalization, prices have doubled in the last 5 years but are still quite cheap, and Detroit experienced its first uptick in population in almost 70 years.I was just in SF last weekend and met a couple of clients.

The other frustrating piece to that pie is that folks assume because properties are going for cheap in an area that contractor rehab work is going to be 'discounted' as well, and it is NOT discounted, it's the same going rate, if not MORE in less expensive neighborhoods because it is MORE COMPETITIVE in those areas for licensed contractors.

So go find that local person who teaches cheap classes, or provides a 1hr overview at a local REIA.Read the book the 16% solution for a general overview of concepts and ideas.

If you are in California, then property in KY, Indiana, TN and a lot of other areas seems dirt cheap to them.

You request cheap, you get cheap service. 2.
