Industrial midwest cities help built this country and this economy and many got left behind after the manufacturing left and I've seen it first hand how it destroyed communities but they're resilient cities with very strong and resilient people and are excellent for Section 8 rentals.

At least I know this for SFR in my area and I would expect in most other areas across the country as well.

Hey guys,I'm an out of country investor (let alone out of state)  from Canada.

Currently doing 3 renos and 2 rental turns .I know many from OOS and out of the country doing the same. 

You'll find that most larger Midwest cities, currently have a better "bang for the buck" than anywhere else in the country.

Country subdivisions.

We are conservative investors since we will be out of the country eventually.- These total 10 duplexes should bring in 30K gross rent per month and cash-flow about ~3-4K/month.We don't plan to use any of the cash-flow for personal expenses and after keeping sufficient reserves, we will funnel the cash-flow to pay-off existing properties.

On paper, our municipality looks more dangerous, but if you spent 10 minutes on the ground you would realize the reverse is true.Some parts of the country basically have a "catch and release" program for criminal behavior. 

My name is JT I am new to investing, 26 years old and would like to start on a path that builds wealth for me and my family!

It's not just about making more money, it's about living a life that's long and full with those you love.One of the above pillars is giving back and one way I do that is to help people just getting started find, not just the next property and get them to sign a contract, but to also get people set on a path of success and show them the things that I wish someone had shown me when I started out years ago.
