As someone who occasionally works with these investors, I always try to emphasize the challenges that come with real estate like managing renovations, dealing with tenants, and navigating market fluctuations.

Been with a handful of property managers during that time.

.: @Srikanth Kumarjust curious how you plan to manage a BRRRR from out of state. 

Build a strong team with experienced lenders, real estate agents, and property managers, and educate yourself through books and podcasts.

My team and I are also out-of-state investors, including a managing partner who was born and raised in Toronto.We’ve been investing in Cleveland for a little over a year now and currently own 22 units in the area.

It’s a little more work to set up, but if you get a solid property manager, it’s not as scary as it sounds.If I were you, I’d keep digging into the Capitol region, NJ, and CT—compare the numbers, and maybe even start building connections with agents or wholesalers in those areas.

Our goal is to bridge the gap between real estate investors and tax & financial advisors who truly get the nuances of REI.This tool is all about connecting folks like you with advisors who aren't just about managing investments or doing basic tax returns.

Quote from @Josh Otero: Hi BP community, I know you've got some crazy tenant stories and I want to hear it.I'll go first:1) I was managing a 5 story apartment building and a dog fell off the 4th floor balcony because of the owner not paying attention.

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 would run this by your realtor/property manager to get clarification.
