Hi Hannah;The market for rentals in the Buffalo/Niagara region is still very strong, but the area varies greatly by neighborhood - often block by block.

I'm located in the southwest Ohio region, and I am a complete newbie to real estate investing.

Thank you Chad, Do you mind if I ask what region your contract property is located? 

I'm Ian, 20 years old, currently living in Toronto, Ontario and I'm new to the real estate game.

I went thru this with a tenant that was collectible, she worked at a large regional hospital.  

This is my first time starting a discussion on BP after lurking for a while and listening to the podcasts for a couple years.Recently I have seen numerous posts, most recently by @Alex_Franks regarding the major disadvantage to investing in buy and hold properties in SC, specifically as it compares to our neighbor to the north NC.Since I live in York County and have invested in both regions for the last 8 years or so I am confused and hoping the collective knowledge can educate me.Now to start with I am well aware, and anyone investing in SC should be as well, that non owner occupied properties are assessed at 6% vs owner occupied properties being assessed at 4%.

Wondering if anyone in the region can give me a reputable referral to who you are using for your title company and/or attorney.  

One of the things I have picked up here about markets is that they are regional.
