I did a 3-unit BRRR in Harrisburg, PA.

A lot of OOS investors like to invest in Ohio, Michigan, PA, and Indiana.

I'm looking in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

I am a twenty year plus licenses GC who has built over 100,000,000. in commercial and residential construction in the NY, NJ, PA, CT and CA marketplaces.

Gettysburg, PA in (Nov, I think) 2021 changed rules for STRs.

Do you think purchasing a property in Philadelphia, PA, and managing it remotely from Westchester, NY (Roughly 2-2.5 hours away) with the help of a local handyman would be too much of a stretch?

I have my eye on a large single-family residence in Bethlehem, PA, but I have yet to acquire financing.

Maybe PA. 

Not all but a vast majority based on my doing deals in PA NJ WV OH SC etc etc. 

From what I’ve seen, areas with strong job growth, landlord-friendly laws, and steady population increases tend to be great for both short-term and long-term rentals.If affordability is key, the Midwest and the Southeast have some great options—think places like Ohio, Tennessee, the Carolinas, and even parts of Pennsylvania.
