I'm excited to share a small win in my journey into out-of-state real estate investing!
After overcoming a few months of analysis paralysis, I finally took the plunge. For my first investment property, I prioritized ...

@Ramiro De Leon Welcome to BP and great choice on looking in Denver!

People have a tendency to want to do what they know and what they like which is fine for your primary residence, but not always the best choice for an investment.

All my rentals are in Kansas in a city that David Greene like to pick on as his Midwest scapegoat (although his criticism isn't totally unfounded, a company there did just land an over $1 Billion government contract so I am happy with my city choice).

I agree new construction is likely the smartest choice here.

Is Coamo a random choice or is it influenced by a specific $ opportunity? 

Hi Eli, A few different ways: 1) You can ask your realtor to put you on a drip campaign for any assumable loans in the areas you desire. 2) If you are looking at something off-market you can ask your realtor to work with their title company of choice to pull lists of all government loans, in whatever areas you are looking for.

They do either a flat fee or contingency, your choice.

Recommending a umbrella only approach may not be a sound decision, but again, it's your choice.
