She's a wonderful person and is successful in the STR space in Pittsburgh.

You would primarily have a section 8 tenant base there now. A

Wondering what markets people are interested in buying in right now?

It’s awesome to see someone starting their real estate journey at such a young age with a clear vision and determination.

I have been blessed to purchase a home here which I have been house hacking for a year now.

@Frank Newsome the profile you started here on BP yesterday, doesn't show where you are from.So, not sure how you picked those 4 markets, other than they are all in Michigan.We're in the Metro Detroit market, not the other 3.Our website has a map showing all the cities in Macomb, Oakland & Wayne Counties, that make up Metro Detroit. 

In Florida right now, market rents have mostly stayed flat for 1-2 years, and expenses and insurance have gone up.

Quote from @Rafael Ramos: I would focus on a newer build in a nicer market with a proven history of appreciation.

I’ve been in the real estate business for almost three years now and have completed five deals: one buy-and-hold long-term rental, one short-term rental, and three fix-and-flip projects, for which I helped raise capital.

I do a lot of business near the parks with STR and I know the HOA fees can make it really difficult to make the numbers work.
