New to IA: Iowa City / Cedar Rapids
Hey all!
My girlfriend and I recently moved to IC for her to begin Med School - hoping to connect with people in the business new and old!
We are looking to purchase our first property this year, specifically a SF/MTF buy & hold in the Cedar Rapids or Iowa City area.
We do already have a realtor.
*Out of curiosity, how long did it take you from when you first heard about real estate investing to make your first investment?
I first started reading/listening to BP back in 2020 and boyyyy do I wish I had bought when I lived in Tampa, FL LOL. I'm sure some of you have similar stories :D
Cheers,
Zak
I would maybe buy where you want to end up living, unless you want to own a rental in IC if don't live there anymore. Otherwise your hold period will be fairly short. She'll be busy with Med School and then it's residency. You'll want to live on the west side of campus so she can walk to school and not have to deal with parking.
