I target downriver and some areas of Detroit near it because I already know that driving to my (old cottage that I couldn't sell) rental over an hour away is hassle that I would rather avoid.

In this job I've traveled to all 50 states and multiple countries and continents around the world with bands such as Big Gigantic and String Cheese Incident.

This we did in record time just before our daughter Charlotte arrived.The home was a three bedroom 1535 AD gamekeepers cottage which had undergone many renovations over the following five centuries.

Just from a risk/age standpoint, you can take more risk because you don't (presumably) have dependents, obligations, other costs of be a certain lifestyle (we all remember college mac and cheese days) and you have many many years of income to come; therefore, you can mess up a bit the way a 75 year old cannot just based on the number of income earning years ahead.

I'm going thru a similar situation down here in palm beach county and I have a cottage in the back of my property that I have rented. 

@Travis Sperr Well, I want to follow the rules to the point of not cheesing off the city/county/state.

That one'll be a 'beach cottage'. 

Beach rentals can be nearly 3 times normal market rents just to be within the mile radius of the sand.Little 2 bed cottages on the strip will rent for $2400 a month.

If your agent invites Brokers with a some wine and cheese tray from your local HEB store, you will get a bunch of feedback, which could be used to sell your newest flip!
