I do have a full time job that I work as my primary income so this is more for fun/expanding my horizons.

Holding properties in good times and bad, typically are very forgiving the longer the horizon.

Even a distressed dump of a house located in a warzones in the worst inner-cities don't lose value over 5+ year horizons.

I am looking to expand my horizon a bit more and looking at more areas midwest. 

It’ll only take a year or two to pay it off and as someone who’s under 25 my time horizon is extremely long.The goal is to have a mix of paid off and leveraged properties by 30 so I can then expand aggressively in that decade.  

This combined with determining you time horizon for when you will need the money will guide how aggressive your investing should be. 

I think you're going to get different answers on the whether or not it's worth it question depending on your time horizon.

Not $200/mo, $2400/year to go capture that in some worse off area and make your numbers work on year 1 & year 2 in a 10-20 year time horizon investment.

If your time horizon is longer than 7 years, then I would say yes to real estate.
