How long have you lived in your current residence, and is it within this (City, Region, State)?

This can be profitable in my region of South Carolina as long as the price of the land is a deal as well. 

Commercial RE is on deep recession, some financial company like regionals are collapsing.

@Caroline K.La Veleta, Region 15 and Region 8 would work for the right properties.

In the meantime, if you're looking to build a team for wholesaling and managing rentals, focusing on networking and connecting with others in these regions can be highly beneficial.Feel free to reach out if you want to discuss anything related to the Montana market.

HUD guidelines remain the same and authorizations to deviate from guidelines may be obtained at the regional level.

Well Marcus since its U and me on this thread. ( and I cant believe more BP members are not interested in learning about these types of investments)  but anyway here goes.The property was originally optioned from the land owner who bought it in the 50s for next to nothing in today's dollars..The company that had that option that started in about 2002 also optioned it for 5 mil or so with annual option payments ( they were a large SFR builder as in larger Regional builder). come 08 and well that builder was one of many in the PDX market that had way to much inventory and the banks called most of their loans and he lost MILLIONS and pocketed much fo the last draws and actually decamped to Cabo and bought a resort at Cerritos beach that is still there today.

I work with a friend that moved from Las Vegas to Brookings Oregon...I'd say from Florence north to Warrenton and Astoria are all prime regions.

We're both eager to diversify into real estate investments.Although our home base is in New Hampshire, we're open to  investing wherever we can maximize our returns.Primarily interested in multi-family investment properties to leverage our first-time homebuyer loans effectively.Initially, our focus was on purchasing properties in the New England Region (mainly NH & MA).

Seek out regions that are seeing increases in infrastructure, employment, and population expansion as these factors can eventually raise property values.Pitfalls to Avoid:Overleveraging: Take care not to put too much debt on your shoulders or overextend your finances.
