That'll keep you from feeling too committed to one market before moving on to the next.Say you make a list of Indy, Huntsville, Memphis, Columbia, Atlanta, Richmond, Pittsburgh, Louisville, and Lexington (names just for argument, pick whatever you want).

Morning Bill from the banks of the Columbia River we dodged the tsunami :)  the opposite is true regarding Texasyou will have roof issues you will have weather issues in many areas you will have serious soil foundation issues and Tax's will go up and are very high.. what your describing of course is a poster child for why you must look at all angles of a Market your describing landlord heaven when it comes to on going maintenance and a state with No income tax like Texas and some of lowest property tax's in the US so when you add those all up the market you describe you can PAY more for the asset and in the long run come out just as well if not far ahead.. 

I have 30k sitting in the bank, 710 credit score, 18% DTI, and the markets I'm looking into now are Hilton Head Island, myrtle Beach, Charleston and Columbia (inland).He also advised that any long distance property manager is going to screw me over and honestly that really took the wind out of my sails hearing that.If anyone has referrals for reliable, productive property managers and realtors in these markets, that would be greatly appreciated!

Hi All.I live in British Columbia, Canada and the real estate here is crazy to consider any investment.

Hello,I'm curious to find out if there are any "opportunity zones" in Canada, more so British Columbia.

Parts of southern Columbia county have pretty good rental markets.

After living in Columbia for almost 10 years, my family and I just moved to Cape Girardeau, MO.
