Hello , 

My name is Anissa and I currently live in California . I started my real estate journey at the towards the end of 2022. My goal for 2023 is to purchase my first investment property. I have put in a few offers in Toledo and Cleveland Ohio but unfortunately none of the offers went through. I am looking for a new market at this time and would like to know any areas I should do look into ? Any recommendations?

 I would definitely keep putting in offers. I know people that have submitted 40+ offers before getting something

    Keep writing offers. Dayton and Columbus are two other markets to consider.

    @Anissa Allen I would recommend Detroit. Since you are open to areas like Toledo and Cleveland, I would then take a look at Detroit or Metro Detroit. As you research know this is not an easy market to invest in but if you have a great team, trusted party to talk things out, and willing to learn. You can do well here. 

    @Jamiel Strickland, Why is Detroit not easy to invest in? I'm new to all this and just curious.

    Happy to chat on Kansas City. It is a great cashflow and appreciation market. Very HOT :)


     Is this in Kansas or OK side?

    I think the Midwest overall is still pretty affordable compared to other parts of the country.  I'm in Cincinnati, so I only invest here for short term rentals.  With the right property, you can make great cash flow.  What are your goals with your investment property?

    @Anissa Allen Indianapolis is a great market for both cash flow and appreciation. With a lower price point, it really is a great option. I'd be happy to connect with you with my team if you're interested. Good luck with everything!

     Here are some reasons why Detroit is difficult to invest in.

    1. Scammers - Many realtor and contractors that take advantage

    2. Bad workmanship contractors

    3. Property management companies rather work in the suburbs that Detroit so lack of PMs.

    4. The good $25k house is gone now, the prices have increased so no more buying good houses under $30k anymore. 

    5. Some areas are just really bad. Its just that simple. 

    Now,

    After reading all this scary things why do I invest in Detroit, continue to, and recommend others to do the same? 

    I am open to talking more feel free to message me and I will provide anything you like to know.
