I am located in a great city in the Southeast.

I'm Julie Ahles from Southeast Wisconsin, passionate about becoming a real estate investor.

It's a trip for sure :-)There are many REI opportunities in different markets - markets in the Midwest and Southeast of the country are great - where not only are the purchase prices reasonable for most RE investors, but the homes are turnkey (new builds or completely rehabbed homes, tenant ready, systems 10 years of life remaining on them, property management teams in place) with appreciating home value AND appreciating rent.

You can always ask for a tax recert and challenge the assessment file a petition to the VAB value adjustment board and dispute assessment.If all of that fails start looking at investment properties in states like TN, LA, AL, GA, FL, these states in the South East can offer super low annual property taxes. 

Lawton, Oklahoma. https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/lawton-oklahoma-is-the-be...I used data from The Market Finder https://www.biggerpockets.com/markets and AirDNA.coI found out Lawton is one of the Market Finder's picks hottest 25 LTR also.Here are a few caveats before people tell me how wrong I am.1) I probably have a location bias, as I am primarily in Texas and the Southeast markets.

But in Asia the cap rate is 1%, even sub zero cap-rate something.

My family and I have several in the southeast (Blue Ridge, GA, Smoky's, TN, and Miramar Beach, FL).

Most of them a few blocks away and a few overseas in Asia.

I have always felt safe walking in NYC relative to smaller Midwestern and Southeast cities where people are doing more toxic stuff in the downtown areas.
