Local REIA groups and meetups (check Meetup.com or BiggerPockets) are excellent for connecting with both new and experienced investors.I’d be happy to grab coffee and chat about the market or share insights.

Here’s our OPINION for the Metro Detroit market (use as a template for your target area!)

The market in Scottsdale is cheaper than the Seattle market to buy, however, the rental market is a bit higher, so we would likely be renting for around $6k-$7k/mo. 

If you are willing to live in urban areas you may want to talk to a local bank in your market and see if they have any incentives or grant loans for certain areas.  

Have you scoped out a market yet?

Commercial RE is a bit more strict than the residential market which has more options available due to flexible housing regulations in place to make it easier for people to buy their primary residence.1) Family and friends.

I’m planning to move what I have in stock market ($2.5-3Mil) to buy a good realestate.

I am local to the Memphis market here and like others have mentioned communication is key.
