I’d recommend looking for a market that’s affordable and has good rental demand—local job growth or proximity to schools can be a sign of a solid investment.

For max $200k you can really only afford Hilltop, Franklinton, Linden, Driving/Deshler Park, Whitehall.

Many successful investors started small, such as with house hacking or buying affordable properties to rent out.

This would mean that generally the households in that area wouldn't be able to afford more than $1125 per month. 

Have invested in ABQ with first purchase in 2020 - and that was based on my knowledge as a film/TV friendly area and affordability.

Shared housing provides affordable, flexible rental options for young professionals, remote workers, and students.As shown above, co-living properties have more demand than traditional two-bedroom units and appeal to a wider tenant base.2.

And I will stay in my condo until I can afford to buy a bigger place.However, with high interest rates, I’m reconsidering.

Their pivot to ADUs more recently is an attempt to increase affordable housing in many of those same areas. 

House hacking is an incredible way to live affordably while building wealth through real estate.

We’re drawn to relatively affordable areas that may be more resilient to climate change in the long run (though we know nowhere is immune).Buffalo has caught our attention because of the growing investments in the area, which we think could drive future economic growth.
