Greg and Nate go solo for this one, breaking down the question almost every new real estate investor gets stuck on, whether to buy in your own backyard or go looking for cash flow somewhere else. Between them they have local rentals, an out of state turnkey property, and a LoanBidz client base that runs from California investors buying in Ohio to operators scattered across the Midwest.
