You have to look for recently sold properties. 

I recently purchased a duplex to owner occupy and have been living there since December 2017.

Other cities that are getting some attention are Indianapolis, Kansas City, and more recently Jackson, MS & Birmingham, AL. 

I think Wenatchee would be a tough market for me to start in right now given the recent home price trend in the past few years, fewer tenants/less of a rental market, and the initial cost of a home.

We started a home renovation company and have had a lot of success over the past 2 years, but we have always had the goal of investing in real estate and recently decided to go for it.

I recently came across a multi family here in Middle Georgia (Macon) that needs some work. 

Recently a few friends have suggested that I invest some money into the basics such as new plumbing and some cosmetic work so that I can at least market it for a higher price, however, I am hesitant to do this as I am not sure if anyone will buy once the updates are completed.

@Jim Shonts @Dave Atwal - FYI, I started recently a thread exactly on this subject -what PM do or don't do - https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/609031-landlord-property-manager-bill-of-rights.

I also did property management in MD recently.
