I have been a member of Biggerpockets for about 3 years learning very much there and because of my medical condition I spend most of my time 10 to 12 hours a day, seven days per week, on the Internet and I read a book about every two weeks. 

I don’t feel it’s growing as fast as other parts of Lexington, so it feels more like a gamble.

And I can only use internet to check the rent and I doubt how accurate the Zillow and Realtor are....

Careful on internet advice MINE INCLUDED... we are all just people..

Just as safety for myself.The internet is great so a wifi thermostat and/or video camera is good.I have my wife as an agent so when I'm not around she can do things so should not be a problem.

However, if one could pick it up for say 10 cents on the dollar, could be a gamble willing to take.  

But isnt that more of a speculation/gamble as opposed to tangible money?

It's a little bit of a gamble, but if it's a relatively small volume then you have more possibilities.Is there anything stupid about this strategy?

One thing I'm not sure of is location in this case, I suppose I could either look in a well established area and expect equity to increase through remodeling or in a less desirable area that I'm gambling will attract more attention in the future.

White towels; I put 2 per room and have another 2 per room in closet for fast change over if needed.7.Fast internet connection with a very good router for better video from camera and guest ability to stream movies.
