I've lived in this area for almost 10 years this time around and for a few more years before my adventures in the Army. 

@Ralph Richardson  Interesting times to be at the start of your RE investing adventure. 

I and my brother are taking this adventure together.  

Off grid home's that are on the states power supply and are rented out by the night for people passing through since it's right by a main casino and horse track.

I stayed here because of the weather, family and amazing access to the mountains which I hike, ski and adventure in as often as possible!

But, their efforts do not compare to the clout of the major hotels and casinos.

As Dawn mentioned, there is a good reason why properties are for sale for those prices, there are 23 available on the mls in  Akron and Canton right now if you would like to pick up a few, just be ready for an adventure

@Elizabeth Colegrove we've has so much fun with it and definitely recommend Airbnb to other adventurous landlords! 

Keep us posted on your real estate adventures.

I also checked Malaga, and unless anyone can convince me otherwise, I absolutely ruled it out, prices are lower, but not that much, rents, on the other hand rents (which is my idea, as I can´t afford to invest by just keeping properties for long without renting)  are quite low, and I know you don't always find a tenant as there is a huge surplus of houses (for the same price of house, even though that would mean a bigger one, you might be able to get 600-700 euros rent, I would say), I can be wrong, but I am not off by much definitely.About taxes and so, well, I have no clue, I foresee that being an entire new adventure, but first things first...
