Hi guys! My wife @Noelle Saingarmis thinking about travel nursing lucky me and that means we can pick some states to get her licensed. We have done a few flips and are in the process of one right now in Bend OR, learning more every time. We also have a little money we want to consider investing in a multi family to start building long term reliable cash flow. We really don't know much outside of CA and Oregon, so what states do you think we should consider? Thanks so much!
I'd say if the local market is too hot, invest where you have connections/relationships. Do you have out of town family that you could visit and do some investing there? Maybe somewhere else that you know folks who could introduce you to a good realtor, property mgr, etc?
My wife and I have connections in Chattanooga, and have chosen to invest there (because I can no longer afford most things in Bend). However, if I didn't personally know my realtor, property mgr, and construction folks there, I wouldn't feel comfortable investing there. Good relationships make it possible.
@Josh Garner thank you for the reply. Hows it looking out that way?
We are lucky enough to be able to travel so we were going to try to find some good areas, stay a while, and learn the local market. Hoping to get some contacts through BP.
