I feel like I need to stay local (Greater Cincinnati OH)2-4 units.  

Thank you all who responded, I plan on spending some time driving the neighborhood and talking to anyone at the local coffee shop who will talk to me. 

For example, you might leave $10,000–$25,000 in the deal, end up with a $3,000 monthly payment, and only collect $3,000 (or slightly less) in rent.This applies to my local market and primarily to Class B or higher real estate.You’re better off finding a solid property that needs only light cosmetic work (e.g., paint, flooring, or perhaps a kitchen or bathroom remodel), buying it at a decent discount, and putting down at least 25%.

U can check out  ivyridgeestatescanby dot com for my 90 home project in Oregon that I did with my oregon bank and then my website for pictures of homes we built in Charleston SC which is the only market I tagged HML ( lima one) and only one time the rest were done with Ameris bank or Service first bank that is local in the market. its all about the three C's  Character Collateral and capacity..

I'm local to the area you checked into on the post.

I like markets with diverse job drivers, and it is always helpful to have major corporations locally. 

From around 2018, when the golf course closed, until 2021 local residents essentially used this giant open parcel of grassy land right in the city as open space.

I recommend checking local crime statistics on SpotCrime.

I’ve invested locally in SFH.

We're going to start attending local meet-ups again and stay active.
