La Crosse is a great place to start investing with 4 local colleges, 3 major hospitals, and several large companies there is a high demand for rentals.

I had a high rise condo that I was able to lease for a 35% premium as a LTR FULLY FURNISHED.

Residential commercial (5+) has peaked IMO but with the housing demand so high and prices stabilizing, more people are being pushed towards renting which should keep your vacancy rates low. 

I have a home that is an STR in a highly desirable tourist destination.  

I live in a resort town, with a lot of second homes, so the market price for an average home is already pretty high.
