What states do you avoid as a note investor

[Chris Seveney]

I am curious to hear what states other investors avoid and the reason behind it. These are the top 5 I stay away from:

1. New York - lengthy and costly foreclosure

2 New Jersey - lengthy and costly foreclosure

3. Georgia - licensing requirements

4. Kentucky - licensing requirements

5. Illinois - most product is in crook county and costly and lengthy foreclosure

There are others but some of them have so little product anyways (ala Massachusetts / Connecticut etc.)
