Out of state investing

[Luke Nafrada]

Hey everyone my name is Luke and I am just getting into real estate investing. I’m still learning and trying to do as much research as possible.

I currently go to school in Utah but I am looking to invest in Tennessee where I know there is a great market. Being new, I could use any and all advice or tips about out of state investing and specifically how to find a great real estate agent in the market your investing in.

Thanks for the help!!

Luke, many good sugestions here.  Easy one that is always over looked. Read the local paper! Once you narrow down the city, town and neighborhood. The local news is a wealth of information. New employer moving to the area? New school being built? Crime rate? Any and all construction projections to take note of. Great, easy way to self educated, when you don't live in the area. Best of luck!
