Hi everyone! Super excited to have found the BiggerPockets community! I am based in Oregon and I am planning on diving into the world of out of state investing.

I have bought and sold a couple of  homes here locally but would love to start growing my out of state portfolio which I have very little experience in. 

Would love to be able to network and run deals by those with more experience than myself. Hopefully I can also be a resource to you as well. Thanks so much! Looking forward to connecting!

Hey Justin, totally can relate with you being from an expensive real estate market - I moved to Columbus a few years ago (from Portland, Oregon which was super expensive) to become a full time real estate investor, and ever since, I've completed quite a lot of BRRRRs, flips, and own a successful rental portfolio here in Columbus Ohio. There's so many catalysts for population and job growth (Intel, Honda, Amazon, Nationwide Hospital, etc). I can definitely tell you there's still a lot of positive cash flowing and 1% rule deals and you get amazing appreciation. As an investor and agent here in Columbus Ohio, if you have any questions or want to connect, definitely reach out!
