Many markets outside of Orange County and out of state offer investment properties between $100K-$200K. 

Market price was at 650K, the deal might only make sense to purchase at $438,782 (Including CAPEX/Repairs funds).

I am looking into the following markets and would like to get feedback from seasoned investors/realtors/lenders/project managers regarding the market barometer is like. 

Realize most SFH and MFH has been in a Sellers market.  

We already have a small portfolio, 3 doors, in Omaha, NE where we live, but the market here has gotten too competitive/overpriced.

Learn the basics of financials in RE, build a strong team on the ground, understand the ins and outs of RE and what market your in, understand how to actually flip the home and what strategy you are doing (Highly recommend the BRRR) as holding homes is where the money is made.REAL ESTATE IS NOT EASY!!!

Every market is different, but here in Pittsburgh the 20+ properties per month that we put out are usually off-market and below market value so a generally low barrier of entry.

I've always had good luck with Furnished Finder (but in the Denver market).

You want to keep it as you like the cash flow or see the market really performing well for the next 2-3 years. 

I am a real estate agent in the Columbia,SC market, but I actually starting investing 2 years prior first.
