Quote from @Delton Friedman: Hi Everyone, I have been looking at building a duplex to rent in the Houston area, but I am not sure how to start. 

Tried it years ago when we starting managing MTRs and had zero inquiries or bookings from them.

Thanks Meghan, this would be my first purchase so looking to start with a smaller sq ft facility, around 50k.

I’m from Miami would love to start an Airbnb in Orlando

We are Canadians eyeing up the market in the USA and looking to start investing in properties across the border. 

@Michael AddisonIf you're just getting started in Cleveland I would recommend being in areas on the West Side of Cleveland like West Blvd, Cudell, Old Brooklyn, Clark Fulton, Edgewater, Jefferson, and Brooklyn Centre.

If you haven't found a meetup, that's where we started to network with investors, as we formed our own groups to discuss investing.  

Goal would be to acquire 20 rentals by the age of retirement, with some already starting to be paid off.I am in the same boat as you, and I focus on safe appreciation all day (small cash flow for safety and then focused on markets on that appreciate). 

I also relocated to miami Florida from columbus ohio. it all started with mindset.
