G'Day everyone,Just wanted to write a quick post to "set the record straight" on the Toledo market.A few investors recently asked me if the Toledo market was "Booming".I can with full confidence tell you that it isn't and it probably never will...Many "Toledoians" might say that it is but in my opinion that is because they haven't educated themselves on other truly "Booming" markets around the nation.I will say this though, the Toledo market has probably never been better.Downtown is very alive with new hotels, restaurants and bars opening up.ProMedica Hospital is doing wonders for the downtown region along with other areas across Toledo.All of this is fantastic new but let's not confuse it with other "Booming" markets like a Texas or Florida for example.Cranes everywhere, new apartments being built, high population growth, jobs, tech, etc...Toledo and other Midwest cities will just never have the demand/appeal as some other areas across the country.Granted, I really don't know of any other market where you can indeed get a "better bang for your buck".Solid B class properties for the price of a parking spot like in some other higher growth markets lolKeep in mind that 1 or 2 properties won't make you rich so you must have a growth type mindset to do well in the Midwest.Building a large portfolio of 10+ properties will make it stable, safe and will provide a better long term return on investment.Thanks for reading and Happy Investing

That said, I think with the right strategy and a bit of patience, there are ways to navigate even a tough market successfully.Your suggestion about looking into duplexes in out-of-state markets is a solid one.
