I am wondering how much expected weather of an area impacts your decision to invest in a specific area.Recently looked at Census data which shows that people are predominantly moving to Florida and Texas.

Highly suggest coming out to some of the local chicago IN-PERSON meetups! 

The best ideas are the ones that make financial sense.One opinion...hope this helps (and that you're warm in this crazy weather we're having here in Florida).Best.

I wanted to know if there was anything other than the weather that drew people to California.

We were initially looking out of state for a potential move and or investment property just because the property taxes without being able to homestead, plus high cost of insurance, and harsh weather on homes made me feel like it might not be worth it.

They offer networking opportunities, education, and local insights for landlords.4.

I have been following the Real Estate Investing industry for a while and just recently decided to put my focus into it and implement a plan I had in mind for years.So I went down to Puerto Vallarta I put together a team of local realtors, brokers, contractors, property managers and a lawyer. 

Tornado, wind, hail, flooding if in a low spot, general weather related.

I still attend local meet ups and talk to dozens of investors and am considering other strategies like Mid-Term Rentals or rent by the room. 

Just check the local rules to make sure you’re good to go!
