Long term hold investing Milwaukee area - duplex focused
My husband and I are excited to launch our business in the Milwaukee, WI area. We have our team in place, and a realtor working with us. We are focused on duplexes in the $125k - $175k price-range. Given we are new to investing, and work full-time we are apprehensive to BRRRR right out of the gate, so more than likely looking for a property that is mostly "ready to rent," or already has current tenants. We've narrowed down our areas of focus too the following areas... Questions for the forum:
1. Does anybody have advice to lend for this market specifically, and our areas of focus below?
2. We are looking to connect with a good property manager, looking for referrals/recommendations.
AREAS OF FOCUS:
Up Lapham Avenue
Pockets of West Allis
Waukesha
West Milwaukee
Wauwatosa
