I'm wondering if any seasoned investors around the South KC area have any input about neighborhood ratings and where they feel is the best place to invest. 

I'm a new investor, looking at a 3/2 ranch near South Cobb High School in Austell.  

I am interested in local markets such as Vacaville, Sacramento and Redding as well as states like Florida and South Carolina. 

Wondering if any like-minded investors want to start a discussion or meet up to discuss any available rehab deals in the south metro area.

Also we are currently flipping a house in IF, and have another house we moved and are turning into a triplex just south of there in Blackfoot.

Thanks @Russell Brazil!

Welcome @Joshua Buffington to more daylight during the winter time and a more pleasant winter Im sure.If you have any interest further south we should connect when you're officially in the land of Oz.

I'm interested in doing my first deal in South Florida and have just started researching 2-4 unit MF's.  

My name is Cristina and I've been a Realtor in South Florida for two years.

I just got bit in the rear b/c Albany reassessed my property for what I paid for it (duh), which effectively doubled my property tax liability.I'm owner occupied, and with my first purchase I was primarily concerned with simply making sure the income covered operating expenses, and not terribly concerned w/ driving profit, but I was relying on the ~$200/mo I was making above cost to help subsidize fixing up the building, and now I'm about $50 south of the property costs.Paying $50 a month to live in my 4-unit isn't bad, but if this was a classic investment property, I'd be pretty ripped :)
