So he's taking me under his belt in this process (GREATFUL!).

Not every deal is going to be some crazy jackpot and now you have not one but two wholesale deals under your belt.

Buffalo is a good rust belt city to invest in if that is what you are looking for.  

Takes a bit more legwork but another tool for the tool belt.

But not the reason to do it.Good insight here from @Michael Plaks (the Black Belt) 

The biggest issue for Baltimore and frankly any rust belt city is the rise of remote work, Baltimore is cheap for a major job center, but it’s not that cheap period, pretty much any area west of Frederick county or east of the bay bridge has ample housing stock for sub 300k and imo a better quality of life, so the one thing that Baltimore has going for it pre-pandemic which was a pretty solid mix of Fortune 500 companies located downtown has been significantly reduced & downtown is a ghostown now.

By the time you get a couple properties under your belt, you'll be much smarter and in a better position to do more creative investing.Be careful with those cheap Ohio properties.
