We've enjoyed checking out different areas within ~2.5 hours from our home on the outskirts of Cincinnati and recently saw something near the Red River Gorge that I really like and can see myself going to frequently.

One of my buildings I bought 2 years ago and rented for 2100, is currently at 2350 and I never instructed them on rents for that building.There are things they could do better at, and in my mind it's mostly making more information about your properties automatically available on the portal - so I want to email them questions even less frequently. 

i'm also a house-hacker; big fan. and i invest long distance in illinois, too!

Also, not a fan of having an agent or PM be your main boots on the ground for a random market that you are not fully immersed in unless you are a very savvy and highly experienced investor.I used to invest out of state as well and its certainly a lot more to it than many may think and your numbers on paper will usually look much better than reality.Cheers

I actually frequently go there with the family in the summer.
