I live in Lansing, Michigan and here you can get a nice house for under $20k that rents for $650.

So I currently have 6 SHF that I rent in Lansing Michigan.  

 I now own 3 rental homes in the Lansing area.  

I have done several BRRRRs in Lansing, but have not done one in GR yet.

He is also on the board in Lansing that is specifically dealing with LC deals.

Born in Lansing, MI but grew up in Phoenix, AZ.

For instance, in Lansing, MI, the Sparrow Hospital just finished building a multimillion dollar Cancer Center (and, if not a hospital improvement then perhaps a new University building).So, think about similar buildings being planned by major players in the City's and County's stronger economic sectors, and ask yourself "if I'd been aware of it ahead of time, might I have been able to score a few cheap houses or strip malls and been able to flip them to the new, highly-paid employees of the Center or to businesses trying to sell to those consumers?"

I grew up outside of Lansing, Michigan in Holt.

Lansing, IL  would also be a good option.

I recently found this meetup group: https://www.meetup.com/Lansing-Real-Estate-Investors/I haven't been to a meeting yet but will report on this thread once I do.
