We talked to a lawyer and they said the lender should be able to provide documentation that "due on sale" is not applicable. 

I'm sure the BP community would love to be continually updated as well on your progress.

Will they continue paying market rent for a mismanaged property. 

I'd love to talk and get you an offer on it!

Appreciation is never part of the cash on cash calculation.FWIW, I would talk to a CPA before turning an appreciated home into a rental. 

We are talking, underwritten properties that pencil out.  

I hadn't read the Baltimore story before...wow.Hi Sathiya, some thoughts: - attend in person meet ups in the Boston area to talk to other investors who buy locally and out of state to get their feedback and maybe consider looking within a 2 to 3 hour drive. - cash flow is difficult now with long term rentals even if you pick markets that have lower purchase prices than Boston.

I started with Ken McElroy's books, because 1) clearly he knows what he is talking about given his track record and trajectory and 2) because I had easy access to them. 

It sounds like they have been paying, maybe talking to them about your concerns can help them better meet your expectations.

If you want to talk more in depth feel free to reach out and we can discuss more.
