Detroit is definitely the place to be these days, where the cash flow is thick and lush and green.

Is there a CRM in particular that stands out when it comes to analyzing deals, making offers, asking your property manager if it is in a good neighborhood, getting bids from contractors, ect...In David Greene's book he talked about everything being in one place so a system is created and you don't have to be in the same state.

Prox. to trains and public transit is important and adding green space makes people stay longer. 

The ticket price is high, yes, but with creative strategies like househacking and live-in flipping, even a newbie can their foot in the door of CA investing.Those are my two cents.And everything you need to know about out-of-state investing you'll find in David Greene's excellent book Long Distance Real Estate Investing.Good luck!

@Jonathan Greene Yes that's the advice I've been getting from other agents and investors.

I haven't read David Green's BRRRR book, but I imagine that's a good place to start if you haven't read it already.

However, after doing some research David Greene rarely goes to see his properties and has even bought OOS without touring the specific properties.  

Thank you @Matthew Irish-Jones, @Jonathan Greene, and @Ryan Howell for the feed back so far. 

property is in Sierra Del Oro, off the green driver exit/91.

If you want to invest out of state, I highly suggest reading "Long Distance Real Estate Investing" by David Greene.
