How far do you travel to invest? Relocating. Nervous. Excited.

[Ryan Dossey]

So I am potentially going to have to relocate out of state come August 2015. I have a business partner here locally who I plan to continue working with. We run a direct mail campaign that we only plan to increase. Relocation would be for my wife's education. She has her under grad work done and is going on to get her PSYD. (Doctorate of Psychology). We would be moving a max of 5 hours away. My plan would be to travel back a few times a month for closings and looking at properties.  Eventually as our Cashflow increases we would start dropping mail where I am located giving us access to two markets. I also am hoping to be able to go full time by July of 2015. So I need some encouragement and some advice.  My first plan is to "hack our housing". As soon as we find out where we will be living I'm going to buy a duplex and rent half of it out.
