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.

Because it doesn't matter how much you get on a PA if it can't appraise. 

land sale is in Northern PA, but we are currently NY residents. 

I’m not sure all of the regulations/rules to this in PA though.

Many of my properties are in PA and other northern states. 

We're actually looking in Hagerstown, MD; Erie and Pittsburgh, PA.

They are in Pennsylvania for sure and I believe South Carolina.

Just ensure any updates comply with Pennsylvania laws and are handled transparently.

for example, you have the lehigh valley in PA just a couple hours away from you.i'll also say this.
