I've been wanting to expand out of my market in Iowa, and see that the Winter Haven, Lakeland, Haines City areas are similar to purchase points as my market.

They have a few markets and we chose Memphis as our first property. 

Those are some very different markets you listed.

I considered suing for non-performance but felt the hassle of doing so would not be worth the benefit.I'm still hopeful and looking in the Flint market, I just would not use them to do so.

I'm looking to connect and network with other investors, contractors etc who have experience in this market. 

I’m considering amulti-family property in the 76104 zip code of Fort Worth, TX, and I’d love your feedback to help determine if this is a good deal.Property DetailsAsking Price: $169,999 (seller says it’s negotiable).Current Rental Income: $2,400/month (duplex is vacant).Configuration: Combination of duplex and triplex units.Some units are rented at below-market rates.The duplex and need rehab.Historical Income: Seller claims it previously brought in $5,000/month when fully occupied.ConditionBuilt in 1934, so it’s an older property.Some permits were recently pulled (e.g., plumbing, window replacements, and sheetrock repairs), but it still needs work to get the vacant units ready to rent.It’s located in a neighborhood with a higher crime rate but also near major highways and areas with rental demand (e.g., downtown Fort Worth and Texas Christian University).My Goal:I’m focused on cash flow, and this property seems like it could work if I can stabilize it.

I know many investors go out of state for buy and hold properties to generate passive income, but is Blythe a lucrative market?

I would just be careful hopping back in now as interest rates and low inventory are making it very difficult if you aren't finding your own off-market options to buy.

If there is minor rehab (such as painting and cosmetic improvements) you can still close on a DSCR loan, however it may affect your appraised value, which could also affect your market rent if its a vacant property.

I was wondering if anyone knew how I can connect with or market to investors who specifically purchase land/ lots?
