This will be my first REIA and I will attend this first one to see how it is before I decide to subscribe for a year.You can find more info on the event at the link...http://tractionreia.com/th_event/traction-reia-tysons-monthly-meeting-june14/

You'd want to subscribe to some of the local business journals and see if they have free e-mailed newsletters so you can get a feel for the state of the market and long term rental viability...that's my suggestion, anyway.

I subscribed for a free trial and it looks like it works in my area (I'm in MA).Hopefully someone from your area will give you more insights.

Jerrod,One of my goals is to create an e-book to drive email subscribers.

I subscribe to the concept that if I don't know something, i don't guess.  

@Hampton ParrI dont subscribe to the magazine, can you copy and paste the article here so all of us can read it? 

Expect it to be done on day 30"You say "Forget it I want to cancel then"They say "OK but I'm keeping the $50"You say "Whoa never mind I'll still get it, should be out in the next day or two anyway"They say "Tough we are keeping it and we refuse to give you service"They may be within their rights and they did have people on the phone dealing with you and had to schedule around your proposed time and may have ordered some equipment that is sitting in a warehouse, advertising costs to get a new subscriber etc.

Thanks a lot I have subscribed and already have started listening.

Typically a landing page or web form asking the subscriber to commit to the next level. 

Auckland has the strongest population, price and rent growth in the country. following to that i would look at outer Auckland or Hamilton.I suggest you subscribe to the NZ Property investor magazine, (can read it online or tablet too) to stay informed about the market and the general NZ Property sector.
