I know that jobs are scarce there right now and underpaying too so an investment opportunity may help round out the kinks.

You are like me right now. 

Now, it's about taking that educated leap.

This give me access to more opinions and more properties.

I have a few leads on some multi-families in rural areas of Tennessee, including a USDA-financed apartment complex, and looking to speak to someone who a.) owns properties in rural areas of TN (not Nashville, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Memphis, Clarksville, or Murfreesboro); b.) might have experience with USDA properties; and/or c.) might have tips on things to look out for in rural areas.

I've been doing some research of pulling the trigger and with your extensive experience, I'd love to gather some tips.

I’d love to hear more about how you balance the different strategies and any tips for someone looking to get started in a market like yours.

This is a great community for networking and getting helpful tips.

Thanks for the tip.

I'm sure it's better now than it was a couple of years ago due to improvements.
