I started listening to the podcast and posting here a decade ago and it's been transformational for my life and business. 

Higher demand areas have higher demand for a reason - people want to live there, and that tends to put pressure on prices rising as compared to rents and therefore, typically results in lower cashflow.That said, some of the areas mentioned in the previous posts are interesting, for different reasons.

As I said in another post, learning how to paint, spackle and caulk are really important. 

i missed the "rental property" component of the post.

I haven't seen any posts about this option and was very curious to see if any investors would be willing to share their thoughts or experiences.  

My suggestion would be to select someone with the most forum posts or most reviews.

Permit me to introduce myself, as this virtually my first time posting on this forum.

I have 20k to invest but since this will be my first multifamily I want to make sure i'm on the right path.Thank you for reading my post and looking forward to the responses! 

What I was thinking the whole time after reading your post.
