@Arman Ahmed Thank you for the insight Arman, I'll be sure to check out what the mid west has to offer! 

I've got some flats in west London which I self-manage (actually from where I live in Norway). 4 websites which I found were very helpful for learning more about UK property investment are:1. www.thepropertyhub.net (similar to Real Pockets but UK based and on a much smaller scale)2. www.propertytribes.com3. www.propertygeek.net4. www.thepropertyvoice.netHope you find these useful - I'm sure that you will.Have a great Christmas and New Year. 

I do have a lakehouse 2 hours outside of the city, and that is rented to engineers that work on wind farms in west Texas.

I have heard from quite a few investors in Vintage Horizon West, Winter Garden, Florida.

Dayton’s west and north sides still have strong cash-flow plays, while Springboro and Centerville lean more appreciation-focused.
