They were talking about concepts that sounded like they were part of a physics equation.

Vacancies are lower and since this is only a duplex (one physical home), repairs should only be a fraction of what 10 separate homes would cost. 

I am small and young and can do all the difficult stuff like running wires through walls and all the other physically demanding and time consuming tasks that comes with the house rewire.

Though this might not be physical labor, it is very laboreous indeed.Yesterday I analyzed a 46-unit.

And how would we go about getting a loan for a home that would be out of our current state (buying in Seattle WA).The plan would be to get the house before actually physically moving out that way.

You need to factor in physical vacancies, rent lost to lease (you raise rents but can't raise on people already there), bad debt (not everyone pays), and concessions (free month on move in!)

It may be that they find it easier to budget with something physical in their possession.  

But once you have very good occupancy (physical and economic), that's when you can really start pushing the rents up.

I've also downloaded the 130-something podcasts onto my phone for days when i can't physically sit down and read.Again, thanks to everyone for the kind words

I am reaching out to the community to get some advice.Should I physically move to a market that is a little more favorable to investing?
