How far from home will you invest?

[Nathan J.]

Hi Guys

I am pretty new to this. Have yet to pull the trigger on the first property but have done a lot of analysis and have financing lined up so i'm ready! One question i am struggling with is how far should i go from my home area to invest in multi family units. My home area is lower NY state but i wonder should i be widen my net. For example Philadelphia or Albany might be better prospect than say Kingston/Saugerties NY. I worry that since I am working full time this would become unmanageable!
I would love any advice on this topic

Thanks in advance
