I invest very heavily in NW Indiana area and I disagree with the comments above.

I have been heavily involved in the Charlotte area and have been expanding in this area since the summer. 

@Jerome Harrod II- I know you allude to this, but it is heavily dependent on the market (I know that's not the answer you want to hear). 

We were out having a couple of drinks and turns out that my friend's friend was heavily involved in real estate and through him we were able to find a good deal on a house to do a buy and flip.  

This is pretty typical for any property with those numbers.I would focus heavily on the property manager and management company.

@Chris TownleyMozart Management, CA Properties, and Herbert Halsband Properties operate pretty heavily in that area.  

I won't say impossible, but about as close as you can get to it as a method of acquiring properties in this business.Large institutional lenders are heavily regulated and have these cumbersome bureaucracies to protect themselves from exposure.  

I assume they are going very heavily into consolidating the leasing space (listing, application, etc.), and that is the reason that they rebranded Postlets to "Zillow Rental Manager."

After 10 years of investing starting from 2016 I should have XXX equity in my portfolio) Deal making: Flexibility during deal making would be key to growth (Operated vs Non Operated Venture) I am heavily debating (may be proposing) whether we all should start a holding company to run/maintain our individual homes.

Many people are saying that the Boulder Market has been heavily affected by the recent influx of transplants.
