How to determine which state or area is best?

[Henry Pena]

Hi everyone, I currently own a property that I am looking to pull a heloc on. I would like to use the heloc to invest out of state but, I am having trouble determining what area/state is best for me. I am looking to possibly BRRRR with the funds and hold long term. Thank you in advance.

That's like asking "what car is best for you".

Way too much info is missing from your end to answer this question.  You need to know:
1 - What your financial goals are
2 - What your financial capabilities are
3 - What your knowledge base is in the way of strategies
Then you need to apply these things to specific out of state markets to find the micro-markets (not all properties within markets are the same...even if the houses are identical) where the combination of #2 and #3 above will deliver #1 above.
