Getting Started in Cincinnati

[Account Closed]

Hey Guys. 

I am just starting my journey into Real Estate Investing. I have spent the last 3 months or so learning and taking in as much information about real estate as I can, whether it be through books, podcasts, or reading up on everything I possibly could here on BiggerPockets. I am getting to the point where I am looking to purchase my first property. House Hacking looks like it's going to be the way to go to get initially started but I plan on ramping up my purchasing fairly quickly. I live in the Cincinnati area and would love to hear from other investors in the area on how they got started or any tips and advice you guys may have. 

Also plan on looking into purchasing properties in the Dayton,Columbus, and Indianapolis areas. 

Would appreciate any and all advice!

Thanks Guys.
