Getting it under contract

I’m in New York and I’m looking to invest in an entirely different market; like Pennsylvania, New Jersey or maybe further south.

How do I get a property under contract being hours away?

What are some things I need to check off before investing in a market other than my own?

I agree take a trip to the market after you identified a few deals you are interested in. 

Also find a good local realtor to get you some feed back on the local market. I tend to advise against long distance flips but rental properties can still be great for out of state investors.
