I see them here too but mostly where there are lots of Asian stores like in Southwest Houston.

@Gaetano Ciambriello what about south west Bridgeport by by I95?

I am looking for a lender that offers FHA loans so I can take advantage of the low down payment as I will be living in part of the property.Have you had a great/ terrible experience(s) with a mortgage lender in the southwest Ohio area?

I'm also looking a little farther south west into the West Valley and Taylorsville areas!

Out our way-2 hrs southwest of Seattle, a duplex which typically rented for 1600 now goes for 1900 so ya, that's a decent increase but not crazy, crazy.

Central location, southwest or DNT, and PGBT.

Otherwise, your options are DSCR loans, private and hard money, or any other non-conventional loan programs that may have lower down payment options.Happy to help with your search in Southwest Florida!

@Carl JohnsonI think about this every time I hear about how areas of the southwest are exploding in terms of population

What would you pick: South West Florida (Cape Coral, Fort Myers) or Northern Kentucky ( close to Cincinnati)?

I am interested in single family and small multi family investing with my now fiancée in southwest Ohio and possibly for short term vacation rentals.
