And since buyer brokers agreements were fairly rare on the west coast this is also a learning curve for agents and for buyers..

Its A class in the upper mid west..

Large Metros get this.You should be looking in growth markets which have higher cap rates - but the future projection is they will decrease.Mid-west for instance. 

Some solid areas to look at are:Riverside, Avondale, Murray Hill, San Marco, San Jose, Orange Park, southern part of west side, east Arlington, pockets of the Northside.I’m on my phone so a little tough to go in great detail, but you can message me and we can find a time to chat if you’re interested.Chris - thanks for the reply.

Hi Jenna, I have personally invested since 2011 in Cincinnati- Springdale, the suburbs of Cincinnati- Fairfield and West Chester, as well as Cleveland and the suburbs of Cleveland - Oakwood. 

You are in Blenheim area which is trending up but not as nice as Troost or West.

Well nothing on the west coast.. ??? 

I agree.. just look at any large mid west or rust belt metro.. there is a ton of houses avaliable the question though will folks buy in certain neighborhoods where inventory is readily avaliable you can buy existing in many of these markets for far less than new builds.. so to me its really a neighborhood issue  a school issue a crime issue etc etc..

Then buy out my partners on my Costa Rica properties, and just host retreats in Costa Rica, visit my cabins, collect cash flow, and enjoy my wife and kids and travel around visiting friends in my awesome motorhome which I have not purchased yet. great goals.. mine is to buy a nice drift boat and flyfish all over the west and up into BC. trying to figure out do I buy a summer cabin say in Western Montana or Eastern Idado as a home base..

The Columbia market -- specifically West Cola, Cayce, North Main, toward Camden, etc. -- appears to have some properties that would cash flow well, but may be limited on long-term appreciation.I'm looking to stick to market-rate properties.
