For SFH, I find it makes more sense if it's a location where Starlink is also best internet option. 

If you cannot get approved for a $700k loan, then work on that, but saying I don’t know how to do it is not an option.

However, I have no idea how to choose from the remaining cities, it seems there are a lot of potential options:- Midwest - Michigan (ie: Grand Rapids) seems to have options, also seeing Columbus Ohio and Indianapolis coming up- Reno - I've seen mentioned several times on here- Pittsburgh / Philadelphia / Twin Cities - All mentioned as lower cost to get started, and seem to be experiencing growthI'd ideally like to find a place that has strong potential for future growth, a diversified economy, and I don't mind living in (being close to nature would be a plus). 

When the investors decide that is what they are going to do, then the minority's option is to either buy out the majority, or accept the will of the majority. 

Looks like assignment is our only option now!

Numerous ways assets can, legally and illegally be placed beyond the reach of judgement creditors. 

Turn key investments are at such a high negative cash flow that I don't think it'll be a viable option. 

I would also get with a local realtor to get some market insight on things like where to buy in your market and what are your best financing options for a successful first deal.

Good luck Mat,There are certainly a lot of good options for cash flowing multi-unit buildings in Pittsburgh.

We’re open to considering Section 8 rentals if they align with our goals.Our initial plan is to purchase one or two properties outright with cash, although we’re still open to financing options if the right opportunity arises.We’re planning a 1- to 2-week trip soon to explore Indiana and get a feel for different cities and neighborhoods.I’d really appreciate your honest feedback.
