Hi Folks,

I am a out of state investor, currently in process of closing my second buy and hold rental property in Huntsville, this one is in 35803.

I see there are bunch of meet ups that are happening and I feel like we out of state investors are missing out on all the fun! :)

I am thinking of having a google hangout session for whoever is interested in just meeting up and talking about huntsville real estate market. I am from bay area California and we have similar hangout sessions in our group and it has resulted in a great information sharing and networking!

I have spoken to many of the huntsville investors/realtors individually but it would be fun to just meet everyone in one virtual room and I am sure it will be mutually beneficial for all of us.

So if you are interested then please pm me with your email id and I can set something up in the coming weeks based on the groups availability.

Hi Lance!

I completely agree with @Tim White! Even after a year of listening the BP podcast and tons of books there are still so many nuances of real estate investing that I am still learning.

Its great that you are already thinking about your first investment property but patience is of a key essence here! Real estate is all about negotiation and in negotiation, whoever wants it the most, looses! 

But having said all this if you really find a great deal then make sure you analyze the numbers well and don't be afraid to pull the trigger! 

Just my 2 cents! Hope I have not confused you more! :)

All the best!

@Joseph M.

Hi Joseph!

I am mostly focussing on SFR. For cap rates, it depends on what zip codes and what area you want to invest and it can really change based on your risk apetite but based on my limited time looking at Huntsville atleast I can find some decent deals if I look little harder.

Hope that helps! Happy investing!
