Buy & Holds Out-of-State Portfolios - Who has been holding for 10+ years?

[Account Closed]

I'm working numbers for some out-state buy-and-holds.  As usual, I'm underwhelmed by the numbers, especially in the Midwest and the South.  Man, those are some low rents, even in good areas for good houses.

I'd like to hear from anyone who owns an out-of-area PM managed SFH portfolio and has been holding more than 10 years. By portfolio I don't mean your former residence that is now a rental. What region? Does it meet or surpass income goals? Are you still buying there?
