In setting up the platform I have connected with someone local in the area and that will be my 1st point of contact and I could share his info for you to reach out.

If interested in adding another state / city to the list I am happy to connect - but hopefully this is irrelevant and you are already progressing along well with your purchase!!!!  

Hey @Jon Martin, so if you have some kind of broadband connection I would stick with that.

Worth a discussion if you want to send me a DM I can connect you with my team’s DSCR specialist.  

I'd hop on Airbnb as a guest, search the area the potential property is in, and find some properties that are somewhat comps (similar location, amenities, size, etc.) and connect with the host hosting the property.

I'd love to connect if you or any clients are ever in need of financing for rentals or renovations!

Hopefully, this is a useful example of what’s achievable with out-of-state investing, even with no local connections. 

The most important thing is to know the details of your local program like the back of your hand, then look for loopholes.Just to give you and the other BP'ers a deeper handle on why some TDR programs work and some don't, I just uploaded an excellent study on the topic to my FilePlace at http://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/ChrisNewma...

Investors will want to work with you if you are knowledgeable, can find deals and have connection with vendors.

Let me know if you’d like to connect and discuss further!
