Is there anything I should consider about investing out of state? I purchased my first triplex in the same city as where I live. Now, as I'm looking to invest in another property, the numbers don't work well in my city (Portland, OR). It's going to be difficult to get anything to cashflow here. I'm seeing some properties in other states that seem to work better, but I'm concerned that I don't know the area and I don't have relationships there. Does anyone have experience and guidance? I'm not opposed to investing in another state. I just want to go in with my eyes open.

I'm in Portland, OR and having the same question. I can't find much that even gets over 1%.

Congratulations! I'm just a little behind you. I'm working on #2 right now.

I've been listening to the podcasts and having AHA moments almost every time. I just finished Brandon Turner's book and got a few more. I created a profile here and I'm looking forward to more AHA moments to come! These forums are awesome!

Wow! Thanks for all of the comments. I'm looking forward to having more time starting in January, once I get everyone through their health insurance enrollments. I'll be reaching out to more people, and hopefully meeting some of you.

I recently started listening to the podcast and wanted to make some connections to other people on the forums. Let me know if there's a group of people in Portland. I've only done one deal so far (triplex in 2008 that I still hold). I'm looking to share experiences with others and find one or two more deals in the next year.
