Investing in Alabama

My name is Chris and I am a new investor who is looking to buy my first of many rental properties. I live in Oregon but have no interest in investing in this state with the way the landlord tenant laws are here. 

I am primarily looking at Birmingham and the surrounding areas: Hoover, Homewood, Vestavia Hills, Mountain Brook, Meadow Brook, and Shelby County. I'm also looking at the Huntsville and Madison. I'm also open to areas like Tuscaloosa, Auburn, Fairhope, Mobile and Baldwin County.

I'm continuing to learn more about the areas and want to start talking to people there so I can get an even better grasp on the area. It's time for me to start "taking action" and make my investing goals a reality. If you invest in Alabama I'd love to hear about your experience and what your portfolio looks like in those areas! 

Cheers!

Hi @Christopher Lynch.  We’re in AZ and we invest in Birmingham. We typically focus on C/D class neighborhoods for Section 8 rentals and B class neighborhoods for flips.
