I'm in Phoenix and obviously you can see that there are so many people moving from the west coast states out here to a cheaper and better weather market.

Purchase price: $35,000 Cash invested: $35,000 Sale price: $110,000 A fix-and-flip project purchased off-market from a tired landlord involved buying a distressed property with significant deferred maintenance.

Despite rate cuts, we aren't seeing the lending market agree with their expectations on inflation.

In Cleveland you can find below market rental ready duplexes that require minor repairs (keep in mind that discounted properties come with their own challenges).

So there payments are $200 - $400 dollars under market.

What is the market rent?

Being in the Austin market gives you a great advantage since it’s such a hotspot for investors.

I sold all my SFR rentals in that markets as collecting rent and keeping houses in good shape was just too tough.. ( thats jackson proper)  as I said madison and Ridgeland will be fine..

Just do thorough research on the local market and have a solid plan for managing the properties remotely.Good luck!

I highly recommend investing in a property management software, such as Hospitable, for syncing your calendar, automating messaging, and scheduling cleans, as well as a dynamic pricing tool, such as PriceLabs, for optimizing your pricing based on market demand, local events, and seasonality.
