Hi all. I'm from Columbus but have been looking into Dayton as a potential location for my first investment property. What are some pros and cons of investing in Dayton? I'm not too familiar with the city so any information is appreciated. Would love to connect with some Dayton investors as well. Thanks in advance.

What is your favorite Midwest Market to invest in right now? 

Hi! I'm an out-of-state (based in NorCal) SFH investor looking for a property manager. My property is in Columbus - Driving Park area. Would like to connect with any PMs (open to all recommendations), and would also like to connect with any out-of-state investors with their property in Columbus. Thanks!

Hi all, I'm a newbie to real estate! Currently, I'm looking to buy my first rental property. I'm looking at single family home (3B2B) or condo in either AZ or CO. However, most single family home price seems to be out of my range (low 300) and condos all have high HOA fee, which I'm not sure down the road if it's worth it. Should I be looking at other states instead? Seems like there are a lot of experts in this community, therefore just wanted to get some thoughts. Thanks!

Hi BP community! I’m Svetlana, my husband and I are 1st-generation immigrants raising children here in the US - some brainstorming lead us to real estate investment as a tool to secure our family financial future. We have 1 investment property in Europe (an apartment we initially purchased for ourselves and now rent it out). To begin our RE investment journey in the US we are currently learning about everything and figuring out our strategy. We live in a super expensive place (SF Bay Area) and cannot start investing locally due to the prices. If you can suggest any locations in any states to begin with (good appreciation, cash flow, good schools and single family houses under 300k) we would greatly appreciate it!

Hello. I along with my other two friends are planing to buy an investment property for long term rental in Columbus, Ohio or New Albany, Ohio. I have two questions 

-Is Ohio a good idea for a rental property?

- Should we establish a CALIFORNIA Cooperation and have everything under the Corp? 

Hi everyone, my name is Max. I’m new to bigger pockets and I am an aspiring real estate investor. Now, I was wondering… given how tough the real estate market in Canada is these days, does anyone have any recommendations for specific markets/areas to look at when trying to start my portfolio? I know this is a bit of a general question, but any information/recommendations on some of the “best” areas/markets (where you can still get in quite cheap and the place has good growth potential) in Canada to start my investing journey would be much appreciated. And whether you have recommendations because of personal experience/success in those areas, or if it’s your own personal opinion, I’m all ears.

Lastly, I want to apologize in advance of this question bothers anyone. Yes, I know it’s general, might be hard to answer, and ultimately is a very beginner type of question, however I am a complete beginner in the real estate world, and everyone needs to start somewhere. So, any info on where to start looking for properties would be great… oh and also, would you recommend trying to buy a single or multi family home as my first property? Keeping in mind that I am hoping to hold it for the long term and have it be the first property in my portfolio!

Hi everyone!

I have been an inactive Bigger Pockets member but this is my first post.

I live in VA, I have a few rental properties in Baltimore, MD. I am looking to start investing out of state using the BRRRR strategy.

However I have a few questions:

1) What states would you advise to look at for BRRRR? I am looking for both cash flow and reasonable appreciation.

2) Some people suggest to buy with cash 100% while I have seen others suggest to take out a loan. Which is better for the BRRRR strategy?

I look forward to connecting with others - especially those that might be BRRRRing out of state! Looking to connect with contractors, agents, lenders, and other investors!

Any advice is welcome!

Hi everyone. I am currently a junior at Ohio State but am eager to get started in Real Estate, preferably before graduating. Is it possible to get financing as a college student? I know most lenders require you to have a full-time job, but I am unsure if there are any creative options out there.

My finances are in pretty good shape. I have been saving for a down payment and have a decent size cash reserve. My credit score is fair as well. I am currently working full time but will transition to part time once school rolls around. I am also in the Army National Guard, which is another stream of income. Not sure if that would help my case or not. Thank you in advance.
