Start investing out of state or stay in home town?

[Nick Coppola]

Hey everyone!

Looking for a bit of advice here. I currently own quite a bit of cashflowing single family LTR's in Charlotte, NC. The market here is beginning to get really expensive and prospective properties will cashflow very little.

Would you consider investing in another state that you have some familiarity with? I'm considering adding a duplex or two in Savannah, GA. This is only 4 hours away from me. This would be my first out of state rental. I've already read "Long-distance Real Estate Investing" by David Greene. Any thoughts/tips will be greatly appreciated!
