Why We Sold in Colorado: Now We Buy Real Estate in Memphis, TN
In this episode, veteran investors Jim and Amy explain why they sold off their long-held Colorado rental properties and shifted their focus to Memphis, Tennessee—one of the most landlord-friendly and cash flow-rich markets in the country.
