Hi Noy, Pittsburgh is a strong market for investors.

Secondary Markets Are ThrivingOmaha and San Antonio are two examples of secondary markets where the cost of entry is still reasonable.

I use Facebook marketplace as my way of marketing my rentals.

I would consider getting 1-2 deals on market before you purchase off-market.

Local REIA groups and meetups (check Meetup.com or BiggerPockets) are excellent for connecting with both new and experienced investors.I’d be happy to grab coffee and chat about the market or share insights.

I’m Mark, a new real estate investor based in San Diego, leveraging my background in AI-driven lead generation to find off-market deals.I’m currently looking for small multifamily properties (duplexes, triplexes, or quads) to rehab and house hack, to build long-term cash flow while living in the property.Outside of real estate, I’m into fitness, golf, and exploring San Diego’s best outdoor spots.

Unless you are finding off-market opportunities direct to seller, I can't imagine the deals working on BRRRR.

Do you know the markets you threw out really well? 

You really can't get a better snapshot of the Cleveland investment market right now. 

Just be sure to account for the upfront costs, ongoing maintenance, and market demand to make sure the numbers work for you.Good luck with your decision, and feel free to share updates as you move forward!
