I'm originally from Austin, Texas and I'm moving to Columbus, Ohio next month and have been soaking in all of the real estate information I can get my hands on for the past three months.I'm incredibly excited to start investing, and am looking to househack as early as next summer.I know throughout the podcast, I have been warned many times about the importance of knowing the area you're investing in, especially in not only a new market, but also throughout states like Ohio, Michigan, and the like.Upon moving to Columbus I plan to:-Walk/Drive the neighborhoods to see what the market looks like-Analyze deals on the BP calculator to get a sense of what is available and what the deals look like-Browsing the MLS to learn home values and view listings-Continue reading as many books as possible about real estate-Continue listening to the podcast-Continue to interact through BP and network in the areaSeeing as I am a COMPLETE newbie, any and all suggestions for what I can do moving forward to keep my momentum going would be greatly appreciated.

On the flip side I could also invest back in my home state of MI and buy 4-plexes for 200k.
