@Sam ChicquenSam, little late to this but I’m an investor/agent based out of Tampa Florida.I like Tampa and the surrounding markets for its cash flow and appreciation potential.There are still a ton of mom and pop investors that own commercial multi (5+) and I’ve had some good luck connecting with these owners and purchasing from them.The last deal I did was a commercial off-market value-add multifamily and was able to secure seller financing.Downside is flood insurance has gone crazy down here and can really kill some deals.Happy to help you with your search.

I see far to many people blinded by low prices on Zillow that expect to buy great assets for less than a Kia.

The appreciation on the CA properties far surpasses the Indiana ones.

Sorry, this is how far I am willing to share my secrets!

Managing real estate is far more involved than sales and you should look for someone that manages rentals full-time.

The houses I have bought so far were new / newish but now I am opening up to other approaches like flipping and BRRR.

I was brought up to believe thats not going too far, and there isn’t a cluster of something for you to believe in.

My business partner and I have been coming across off-market deals and have a flip opportunity in Gresham and a lot in SE Portland for a new build.

As far as REI goes, here's my history: I had one buy and hold with 3 other investors, which we just sold and I was a hard money lender for one flip.

I am looking to start off house hacking but with so many listings I would like to know if there are some strategies for organizing home information (real estate software, excel set up, hand written, etc).
