It will come, but you will likely have to drive for shopping, eating, activities.   

It's never been a problem, but with the rise of cryptocurrency mining (electrical intensive) and some specific types of indoor horticulture activities (electrical and water intensive), we felt it would be good to hedge against those admittedly small risks.

It is such a large market that values can fluctuate wildly, depending on location.I would become familiar with the city, select some areas to concentrate, and learn the values of what has traded past 90-180 days, since there may not be a lot if activity.

This certainly is an active community.  

Do you have any other recommendations on how to find active real estate investors? 

I'm a 35 year old professional that travels a lot for work, but still actively wants to invest in RE. 

Not sure how active the app Nextdoor is in the area you are going to, but around me that has been where i have found some good tradesmen.   

Even better, get some self employment activity and sponsor a solo 401k then no UBIT on leveraged real estate!   

SFR is active.

We don’t make any active income in the US, only passive.
