North of Cincinnati also great.

You will get higher rents the more north from 8 mile you are but you will also pay.

We fell in love with area and I still work in North VA so it makes sense.I've read and seen how competitive it is right in Richmond market so I'm a little bit worried about first starting out in a sellers market.

Generally we try to stay north of Allen st and south of Monroe st.

I am from the North East and currently living in NH but earlier this year had an interest having a good cash flowing multi in FL after lots of research from last several months and based on the market condition right now I get a gut feeling thats not gonna happen anytime soon for me.

These states are: Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Maryland, Nevada, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin.   

I'd avoid the metro area - you'll see lower value properties, and you'll get the same problems.I'd probably look to Cortland/Champion Heights, which are kind of to the north of Warren.

The wealth is also distributed North to South.

I currently own a single family home north of Baltimore but am looking for something a bit more ambitious, such as a multi-family or apartment building. 

We don't live in a cash flow market necessarily, but if you're west of the 5 in North County coastal, you'll be good in terms of natural appreciation.
