Trying to avoid FL anyways but with all these filters not able to decide. I like to invest in NC but it is saturated already. Also, with this interest is it recommended to wait for 1-2 years?

Never buy any property in a place that you don’t live.. you are at the mercy of property management companies and tenants… one of my colleague had a very bad experience where the tenant stopped paying rent and also had to run to the court to get eviction order after few months.. then Covid came and the tenant couldn’t be evicted.. after the Covid protection was removed, he was finally evicted… 3 years no rent and the house was totally destroyed… he can’t  even sell it now without totally remodeling it …

Financially it does not make sense to buy investment homes now. But if you want to, you shoud buy in the city where you live. Otherwise it gets difficult to maintain. Property management companies will take advantage.

Thanks everyone for the good info. 
Even if we live in the same city won’t we handle with property management to make it easy with the process? If so, how does t make difference when we buy in another city as most of the time it would be through calls

with 7 percent interest rates now there is no point buying investment homes

there are many homes sitting in market for DOM more than 60-90 days

you wont bocchu bhi break even .. forget cash flow..on top you have to shell out additional 1000 per month extra EMI

The only solution is if you can do all cash offer or do 50 percent down..then atleast better

but how many are sitting on 500-600k cash is the question

Even with in city, rental management companies are useless. They won't do anything for you. Once you hire them, you cannot even choose who your tenents are. You cannot even meet them. If tenents do not pay, they cant and wont do anything. Only useful thing is they arrange handyman for repairs. Even that they overcharge. So think about it
