Schools are solid, demand is high, and I think that you'll see an increase in housing prices in the future.

If you have a solid ARV AND a great GC / team that you trust to do good work, consistently, and can stick to the timeline planned, even with hard money you will still make money at 75 or 80%, albeit a little less than at 70%. 

My goal is to gain a solid understanding of the process, master deal analysis, and ultimately close my first deal.Right now, I’m focused on learning the basics — from finding motivated sellers to building a strong network of cash buyers.

It helps to build a good network of reliable contractors, especially if you’re investing out of state.Section 8 has been a part of my strategy, and while it’s not all rainbows, it’s been a solid way to build consistent cash flow.

I'm an investor here in Columbus OH myself and have seen the city's solid and steady growth with strong economic fundamentals driving the market like major companies moving here (Meta, Intel, Google, Amazon, etc), job growth, and population growth.

Having a solid team around you like agent, lender, contractors etc.

Really just trying to build a solid base and gain as much knowledge as possible and eventually specialize in something.  

The bones were solid, but it was a project.

there are multiple cities across the Midsouth that make for solid investments and you are still able to even see some cashflow even in today's environment without buying just straight up high risk properties. 

While cash flow may be harder to achieve here, these markets often shine in their ability to withstand market downturns and provide solid appreciation over time.The key in markets like this is understanding your goals.
