Hey Christine, I might be biased, but you could look into Cleveland, Oh.Here are a few things to consider against investing there:- Slower appreciation compared to some other markets- Harsh winters, which can lead to higher maintenance costs- Many discounted single and duplex might need repairs or updates, especially if the previous owners haven’t kept up with maintenance over the years- Some local regulations to be aware of (nothing crazy, but worth noting when trying to close deals).But there are also some solid reasons to invest in Cleveland:- Affordable properties in the $100K-$300K range- Strong long term rental market due to a high rent to price ratio- Landlord friendly laws overall- Potential for great cash flow- Opportunities for Section 8 tenants- stable market once you have the right team in placeEvery market has pros and cons so it comes down to your budget, risk tolerance, and finding a reliable crew you can trust.
