Hi All, 

I'm looking for areas to invest in out of state for my first rental property as I live in NYC. I went to school in Pittsburgh so its an area I know better than a market I've never been to. Does anyone have any success stories or advice to share about getting into the Pittsburgh market? 

Any real estate agents that are recommended that have worked with investors in Pittsburgh? 

Hi All, 

I live in NYC and am looking to invest in my first property long distance as costs in and around NYC are too high for me. My question is how do I set up my first investment efficiently? Let's say I find a great deal in South Carolina. I imagine I need a trip to see the property initially before purchasing, I need a trip (maybe even a few) to overlook any improvements, potentially time spent there to purchase furniture if I want a STR property and also time to meet and find a house cleaner (never mind a handyman or any other needs for the property).

Living in NYC, I also don't have a car so going an hour upstate, which many wouldn't consider far, is difficult for me. 

How do people use their time efficiently when investing long distance?
