Ideally it should still cash flow solidly but may not appreciate quite as rapidly as the bigger market.

My current goal is to analyze properties for potential deals on BP pro daily and start wrapping my head a general understanding of the process. 

The challenge with S8 in this scenario is you always have a piano over your head and all a tenant has to do is call the code office to create an issue for you. 

@John Underwood hit the nail on the head.

Long-term buy-and-hold rentals in stable neighborhoods, prioritizing consistent cash flow and responsible management over rapid appreciation.

I invest in Boise, ID and do quite a few BRRRRs, LTRs and STRs- varying degrees of success depending on how much equity we can force and the type of back end financing we can find, but the tax benefits are great and it's a rapidly growing market and Idaho is probably the most landlord friendly state in the nation. 

I'm based in Powder Springs, Ga.I've always heard about real estate passively but it always went over my head and seemed beyond my reach. 

Currently, my number one goal is to scale rapidly.

It also kills two birds with one stone: an investment property, and a roof over your head. 

I haven't sold yet, I've been analyzing property to get a head start on the 45-day timeline of identifying the potential replacement property (and because I enjoy analyzing property).
