In addition, the laws are landlord friendly and there are good opportunities to invest in both single family and MF..I’d suggest staying away from Marion County....focus on the other counties that surround Indianapolis greater area (Hamilton, Hancock, Boone).....the push outside the city continues...I prefer Madison County since prices are depressed with anticipated modest growth
