I have been very successful in helping clients acquire Airbnb homes and creating themes and uniqueness for their homes to be more appealing and marketable.

Do you have a team built in any other markets?

I live in a very expensive market (Seattle, WA) and I am looking to invest out of State.

As far as investing in the short term I feel investing close to home (50 mile radius) is the best option because you have a superior advantage by knowing your market.

You need income to qualify for loans, you can learn how to manage rentals well (something most landlords never do), you will figure out which communities/properties make the best investments, can earn an above-average paycheck, and may even find some investment properties before they hit the market.

This will make it a lot easier to manage, will cost you less than buying on the market and typically you can get 1:1 rent returns.

I'm a local realtor and would love to connect and chat about the local market.

Hey @Dan WardWould love to give you some advice , those are my primary markets as an investor and agent helping others. 

You can achieve or even exceed your current cash flow in markets that are more landlord-friendly than Boston.

Or find a deal first then market it to buyers, then offer on the house and create an agreement with the seller & buyer?
