My wife and I are interested in accomplishing similar goals in southern Indiana.Jeff

Going rate in southern Maine is easily 75-100 dollars a door.

We are both here looking for more advice on buy and hold properties in San Francisco/Bay Area and possibly looking into buying income properties in Southern California as well. 

Currently live in southern California- IE. 

So please help.DESCRIPTION:- uses a mail.com email address- has very thick southern accent, deep south- sounds very knowledgeable-demands for appraisals to be paid in cash- always calls from a blocked number- talks a really big game about having $30 million - $100 million to investIf you know anything about this or are contacted by someone like this than please reach out to me.

I'd like to know if anyone does Lonnie deals in Southern CA.  

In my circles in the Baltimore area, south FL area, a few markets in northern and southern CA, across many investors with 20+ years experience and hundreds of doors each, calculating the likely CAP rate of a potential purchase (NOI / expected or max or acceptable sale price) to compare the attractiveness of one potential purchase to another is commonplace.   

I’d like to invest in properties near me, but my area is kind of pricey, so I’d like to explore Chicago and surrounding areas, as well as Milwaukee and southern Wisconsin.  

Because it was southern CA the cash flow was minimal, and eventually we sold it and put the equity to work in an apartment building in the midwest.  

The returns on properties everywhere in southern Ontario has shrunk.
