Just the other day I was able to close for a seller who is living in Taiwan and I'm located in Utah.

The property would be in Florida as that is where I live. 

Note that I live in the Netherlands, which has many tax laws.thank you 

Downstairs 2br 1bath unit we are living in.

The St Germain Act states that state governments can NOT outlaw due on sale clauses except for transfers from an individual to a revocable living trust.

I live on the east coast.

Quote from @Laura Yelin: Hello BP'sI like Sherman...I lived there for about 3 years many years ago and still sell and rent there.It's a slow wealth building market in my opinion, not get rich quick.Mostly blue collar stable town.

Ive owned a 3 family in Fitchburg MA for 4 years that has done exceptionally well with it, living for free in one unit for a while and constantly upgrading the property over the years.

. :)This is especially true if you rely on furnishedfinder.com as your primary lead source (which you shouldn't, but that's another post) as when you make that connection with a prospective resident, you are selling yourself as a landlord as much as you are the property as a place to live.

I'll let others chime in on their experiences, but from a motivational perspective, I think attending live events and getting the "conference high" is something that only happens through in-person connections and being in the same room with investors who are eagerly pursuing their real estate/financial goals.
