Both markets have a lot of activity and seem to offer great potential.

Hi Ryan, I'm a licensed real estate broker in Illinois and also a property manager, and yes, in the state of Illinois, you need to be a licensed real estate broker (to be compliant) in order to manage property owned by others, because property management is considered a form of a real estate activity under Illinois law. 

Active real estate investing doesn’t seem to float my boat.

I am definitely interested - not currently an owner but have two offers out this week and actively looking to invest here - specifically Lake Harmony/JFBB area.

My name is Peter, and I am an investor actively seeking to connect with like-minded individuals and groups in the investment community.

I have seen quite a bit of activity over the past handful of years.

People like Central Tucson because it is close to the downtown that has a great food and night activity scene and is also close the University of Arizona campus that draws lots of parents and grandparents and people who just like the college campus vibeWest Tucson is a great option for the views, golfing and resort feel.

I am long but I also do fix and flips actively and consistently.

In the meantime if anyone else has advice on how to get active income from Reap Estate feel free to pass along🙂.

You'll have less cash flow on the 200k but the absolute equity build will be faster.I'll also say that I don't actively avoid cash flow.
