New Investor from Bay Area - Out-of-State Section 8 Rentals

[Juan Lopez]

Hey BiggerPockets Community,

I'm excited to jump into real estate investing, and as a new investor based in the Bay Area, I'm setting my sights on out-of-state opportunities. My focus is specifically on acquiring Section 8 rental properties, and I'm currently zeroing in on Detroit, Memphis, and Cleveland.

I'm here to soak up as much knowledge as possible. If you have experience in these markets, insights into building a reliable remote team (property managers, agents, contractors), tips for navigating the Section 8 process, or any general advice for successful out-of-state investing, please share!

Thanks in advance for your guidance and support.

Memphis has plenty of great Section 8 opportunities.  Some areas in Memphis are growing and have good upside potential. Seek out a good local RE Agent. Jordan Ray stands out as a great local agent for investors.
