If mass deportations were to actually happen, it could slightly ease demand, mainly in larger cities, but probably not enough to change rent rates.

Yea the area doesn't look like it will appreciate much, I mainly look for cash flow.

Hey bigger pockets!Every time i make a post on here I am getting great feedback so minus well keep posting lol. I am wondering if anyone has good places to research affordable yet healthy/upcoming markets to invest in...

A few years ago there were a lot of get rich quick types, and I still get contacted by people who think they can buy 2 houses and retire on the cashflow.
