Am I wasting my time investing in the Twin Cities?

[Stephanie Deppe]

I am a new investor (I work full time in another career). Just purchased a duplex in Minneapolis a couple months ago. I'm looking to go the BRRR route with long term rentals, but I'm finding deal flow to be very difficult. I have also looked in Milwaukee but not a lot of luck. Could someone lend a helping hand and let me know if there are other midwest cities I should be looking in? Would also need a realtor, property mgr, GC in that city.

Alternatively, I could pivot strategies and aim to start 1-2 AirBnBs/year in my state. Advice?
