Investing in Hamilton County

[Jack Liu]

Hello everyone. Just curious if anyone is investing in the Hamilton County area north of Indianapolis (Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, etc.). It looks like the area is growing super fast with strong employment. It looks like the average price is relatively high and the cash flow is quite limited (typical for an A area). Would love to hear if anyone has experience in this area. Thank you.

@Jack Liu Hello Jack! Local investor here to give you my 2 cents. I do a lot driving for work and enjoy cycling in the area you described. Quite frankly it's the wild west of the Indianapolis market. The area is dominated with new construction, expensive flips, over priced listings, and large amounts of traffic. I advice buy and hold investors seeking cash-flow to look in other areas. It's not impossible to find deals but it's nearly all A class neighborhoods like you described so the odds are low.
