Is it good to invest in the area?

I’d love to answer any questions, brainstorm, and help wherever I can.

I am considering renting it out, but the math is not adding up.

Looking to see if anyone can share their experience? 

I'm new to the area, so testing fix/flip market.  

Now, let's break that down…- A median single family home is $543,000 (up 2% from last year)- A median townhome is $377,000 (Down 5% from last month so appreciation has slowed down significantly here: https://tmls.stats.10kresearch.com/infoserv/s-v1/IFbq-ZfR)More quick stats:- Homes went for 1% under asking, indicative of a less competitive market typical of fall- ⅓ of homes experienced at least one price drop- Homes sat about 21 days on market- Sellers has 10 showings before going pending- There are about 3,100 homes for sale, which is up 10% over last yearWe continue to see more options to choose from, more flexibility from sellers, and cyclical dips in prices across the board.

@Max Servais talk to C4 Insurance out of the Madison area.

This isn’t your average “buyer and seller” market; it’s about connecting with people who have serious goals and the resources to reach them.

are you self managing and what are you using to do that? 

We will put about $2,000 into cosmetic updates and plan to resell it for $160,000-$175,000 What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
