I highly, highly, highly suggest developing a relationship with a really good local agent that understands real estate investing.

I'd go to a market where the economics are the most favorable and focus on a strategy that is easy for you. we focus on new construction and land development in columbus ohio 

There’s a few really good easy read books out there as to why Baltimore developed the way that it did starting over a 100 years ago which in many ways ways is still pervasive and has crippled the city even to today.

The macroeconomics is rapidly growing - lots of job growth, population growth, and companies moving and developing out here like Intel, Google, Meta, Honda, etc.

You may find it useful to seek an unofficial preliminary meeting with the local powers-that-be to get a read on how much resistance there's likely to be with your development, as well as getting an early read on things they'll "suggest" to make necessary approvals more likely.

We believe that developing you into a successful investor is just as important if not more important than actually teaching you "how" to invest.

Knowing which part of the cycle you’re in helps tailor your approach: Expansion: Focus on long-term investments, high appreciation potential, and new developments.

Bali, for example, is seeing strong demand in areas like Kedungu, Tabanan, which is rapidly developing and located just 15 minutes from Canggu—making it a hot spot for investment.That said, it’s also wise to diversify your strategy.

I've developed some great relationships and also a business partner from these meetings.

You will know and get to know the market better, plus you will start to develop local connections which can help.
