However, when I reviewed the property information on the PVA website, the records indicate it is a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property, excluding the 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom located downstairs.

The Property Management website lists it as "approximate location: Street Name on contract."

Hi Anthony-You currently live in NJ and are looking for out-of-state locations that are affordable with strong rental potential.I would look at a market like Lansing, MI.

Miami is still doing well, Fort Myers is adjusting and has lower real estate than 12 months ago, etc..)My simple thought, for what it is worth, is choose a place to live and not invest in:  choose the location you and your family WANT to live in ( because of the schools, taxes, weather, other family there, etc...) and then buy and do real estate there (and get whatever licenses you need once you start third party management).I wish you well!

In my case I sold off appreciated properties in a location I deemed as having limited future upside, and used the proceeds to eliminate all debt on the better located prime properties I wanted to keep long term.

If so, invest.Then, ask yourself does this property provide the characteristics you need for it to give you your return-- location, rental demand, buying demand, physical structure, etc.

Check out File Place: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...The link is located in the footer of every page on the left side.

Do any of these locations make sense to you?

I’ve worked for some group home providers where they employ a maintenance worker who handles some of these issues (usually if the have multiple homes in a specific geographic location) and I’ve worked for homes where the handiest employee fixes things and that option doesn’t always have the best outcomes.
