I would rather lose 100 bucks a month in a solid area, than risk making 200 bucks a month out of state, class C-D, or in an area I don't fully understand. best of luck

lots can go into this somewhat simple question and most of it is personal preference.- you'll want to define "best", and what that looks like for you as a success.- How much money do you have to spend?

Log beds, solid wood pieces (antique or vintage), antique persian rugs, and decorative items/art that come from the local area.Obviously if you are renting a beach condo, this method doesn't work. 

You can get solid cash-flowing single families in the 90-120k price range and duplexes in the 130-180k price range.

Maybe the section 8 person can help advise you, but I'm certain they will give a disclaimer with anything they say that you still need to consult your own lawyer or read the rules.

With careful planning and local insights, Richmond can be a solid addition to your investment portfolio.Good luck!

You'll need a solid proforma and to build a team with expertise.

Personally, in this market, I would work on saving up and really doing my best to find a great opportunity and pull the trigger then.

You’re off to a solid start, especially with all the groundwork you’ve done.

Unless you have a solid plan to turn this around, selling now and cutting your losses might be the best move.
