Do you think investing in property values from 120-180k in upper class c neighbourhoods is a achievable for my first OOS? 

I am not worried so much about maximizing it rather than that it gives me a bit; because as more of the estimated $150000 property mortgage I want to take is paid down, the numbers get a bit better with appreciation as well.

Going to be moving to Chicago next year; looking to purchase a rental property down the line in 1-2 years and just really confused where to go. I know I can't have it all but looking for a stable appreciating with some cash flow and a turnkey SFH. I don't know where to invest, really drawn to Columbus for many reasons (some cash flow and stable appreciation)--what's been some people's positive and negative experiences in Columbus? how did you deal with them? What do you recommend for me? I don't have any income yet as I am just graduating. I know a lot of Chicago investors are here too; but if you were in my spot would you recommend Chicago as prices are too high and I have never been to the city moving next year. Thanks to everyone in advance for their replies.

Hey all! 

I am going to be out-of-state soon and was wondering if there are any good property managers that you recommend in Aurora Colorado (Suburb of Denver) 

I am starting out as a new investor and want to manage and have the least risk as possible. I have found that having a Class B or A property in a good neighbourhood will have less cash flow but will be safer and less rent turnover. The problem is I can't afford multiple of these and don't want to flip or refinance for a newer home doing 1031 exchange or anything else. Can anyone kind of guide what I should do and if having one cash flowing property is good enough? 

Also, I don't know much about house hacking but if I can't find tenants that's a huge cost that I don't want to incur or risk incurring. What is the best strategy for a low risk constant cash flow? I don't have a certain budget range yet but no more than 350000

Thank you so much Jaseem, I really appreciate it. Two follow-up questions: if interest rates drop in the future is it better to go to a major bank? Also, I also wanted to ask if you would still recommend a property manager if I'm living out of state and away from the property? Where did you find reliable loan servicers and RMLO's

Hi there,

I am currently a third year student in my undergrad at a university in Toronto, Canada. I am originally from the midwest and I plan to go back (I don't know exactly where yet and am flexible) I wanted to get advice on a couple of things

1. What are the best places to own a rental property in midwest. ( I was thinking Cincinnati)

2. How should I approach saving for and investing in a rental property, (is seller financed a smart option)

3. How can I measure the ROI and other factors of a property to manage my risk the best and invest smartly?

4. How can I find a good property management company that is trustworthy and will give me maximum income? 

5. Looking to talk to a pro midwest investor with experience.
