Many investors are taking advantage of the high return markets in the Akron, Cleveland areas right now.

I would highly recommend adding a cost.

It's not a perfect measure, but it's very close and year to year consistency is highly reliable due to limited new rental inventory

Take a look at areas such as Burlington, Mebane and Graham (Alamance), and Greensboro, High Point and Winston-Salem (Triad).

True foreclosures are high-risk and not for new investors.

We are still in a very tight, low inventory market- but appreciation has never been higher- it's a great place for a wealth-building investment portfolio- it sure beats the highs and lows of the stock market! 

You would need a vast amount of capital since the area is highly affluent, with some of the best school systems in Georgia. 

Question, with loan interest rates at a high currently and cash money sitting in the bank making 4-5%, maybe have your partner do a private loan for 6.5-7% short term until rates comes down??

ins co's are going sky high on rates, AND being picky as to what new policies they write and/or renew. 

Assuming excellent credit, with 30-35% down on a recent eight plex the par rate is in the low to mid 8%'s and can get into the high 7%'s with discount points.
