In this area, market values hit around $4.95 million, giving you a solid 131% ROI.

What are some other emerging markets maybe with a bit lower to cost to entry for a BRRRR strategy?

Anybody done that sort of marketing?

Focus on market research by exploring neighborhood rent trends and property values while considering your financing strategy (house hacking, BRRRR, or buy and hold).

What makes something a "deal" today is not yester-markets.

@Nick ConnorsIt’s great that you’re using your savings to invest early, and Columbus could be a solid market given your familiarity.

I appreciate the encouragement—I'm excited to learn from and connect with investors in this community.Right now, I’m primarily focused on house hacking in the LA market, but I’m open to exploring out-of-state opportunities later in my career.

Most times when evaluating a DSCR mortgage, market rent will come into play.

I'd be happy to visit about the market.  

@Ella Marie, I can't speak on behalf of your market, but in my respective market, competition is tough, and the successful fix-and-flip vendors are often full-time operating businesses.
