As a licensed real estate agent myself, I can get into trouble for "steering" you to an area, so please accept these as just some generally vague thoughts based on my experience of the area and property management industry.Windsor is a great "small town" that generates good cashflow with moderate chances of appreciation (relative to the CT Market)Granby even a smaller town feel than Windsor, rentals are in high demand and rent prices are high.

That can be fun in moderation, too.The fact that you do RE all day and still participate in this online forum indicate to me that you might enjoy what you are doing more than you are leading on, too.I'm not interested in any kind of hard just or the sake of hard work and a buck.

If the moderators feel compelled, please move it to a more appropriate forum.In Memoriam: Henry West HicksHenry West Hicks, age 60, passed away on Saturday, April 26, 2014 while boating off Anna Maria Island.

I'd say do you best to buy in moderate to better areas with better school systems if you can. 

Triplex for sale and it’s getting moderate attention.

@Eric ReedI have bought from them a few times - it is unlikely that I buy again - New western does a lot of marketing and gets many properties under contract every month - they also get a lot on MLS - in my opinion, they usually try to take most of the profit before passing it along to the investor/flipper - I think they can have moderate buys if you are a landlord, but I haven’t seen them with much opportunity for a flipper - also, they do not pay attention to market areas - if I tell them I’m interested in the woodlands/Montgomery county, I will get emails for everything from the entire metro... 

We introduced moderate rent increases with 120 days' notice.

For example, a moderate to heavy value add project may take a year or two complete, so you will have low to negative returns during this time.This is okay as long as your stabilized returns and ARV are where they need to be.
