My partners and I are looking to tap into the West TN market From Jackson-Memphis.

we have a realtor we like but curious how badly that effects our margins vs the expertise they bring on the market we are in. 

Bull market: most everyone makes money.  

Hey Jerry, I personally invest in the Columbus market and have been doing it for the past couple years.

Your question is more market specific.

What type of loan are you in the market for ? 

Lots of research throughout many markets How did you finance this deal?

Not sure how currency affects the investment though....something like 50% devaluation of the Yen over the last year or two. 

Louis may not experience rapid appreciation like some coastal cities, it has shown consistent and steady growth, which is favorable for long-term investments.Diversification: Investing in a different market can diversify your real estate portfolio, reducing risk.Considerations:Neighborhood Research: Research neighborhoods thoroughly.

It depends on the market, but in Austin, having a washer and dryer either in unit or in the complex is pretty market standard.
