Investing out of state can be difficult when first starting out, if you want the good deals. You can do turn key properties by going with a turnkey provider, just make sure to do your research. Theyll do everything for you, it's really easy. The downside is you wont learn as much. I highly recommend investing locally first, the learning process is priceless. I personally manage locally and invest out of state, so the experience is valuable.
