@Feroz Penangwala I’ve slowed some due to financial constraints.

People will distance themself from him because his mouth is borderline - harassment of tenants.

Even if they have cash, the management expectations + distance will usually make it more of a hassle unless you are really buying it for you to use and rent out whenever safely.

Also, agents will use lots of disclosures for the buyer to sign to acknowledge what the constraints are.

@Benjamin Ying I recommend you take time to read through some of the horror stories that have happened to some who’ve tried OOS long distance investing that are in these forums.

By a distance. 

If you can maximize all 3, then you've also created a very wide lead funnel, which is less common in multifamily properties.Maximizing "pets" means you're removing carpet, allowing at least 2 pets including cats and larger dogs > 50 lbs, access to a fully fenced-in yard or walking distance to a dog park, leniency on breed restrictions (depends on insurance, your risk tolerance, due diligence with pets during inquiry phase), pet friendly furniture (e.g. faux leather couch, low pile rugs if at all), etc.

So given the time constraints of a 1031 exchange, I thought I might have to buy several properties with the proceeds since there could possibly large gaps between the multiple closings.

Moving the house only a short distance on the same lot should be MUCH cheaper than moving it somewhere more distant. 

I live in Minnesota so this will be a long distance investment and 1st one in Wichita.
