Out of state investing

[Anitha Muraleedharan]

Hello experienced investors, 

If a brand new investor from Southern California ask you which out of state market is good to start in today's market for buy and hold what would be a few choices you suggest? Minimal cash flow is ok as long as it's after paying for property management. 

thank you

Anitha.

@Anitha Muraleedharan Columbus, OH if your want to invest in a hybrid market with both cashflow and steady appreciation. Cleveland, OH if you want heavy cashflow but don't care much about appreciation. Tertiary markets in Ohio like Newark, Dayton, and Lancaster are great as well and not as competitive when getting started.
