In the NE states, AKA tenant friendly states, I would always have a PM to help protect my interests.

The one guy I spoke with said they make money only when they sell to potential investors and they only sell new construction homes that are usually pre-leased to buyers (currently they are building in Texas state and Missouri State).

If you're ever interested in seeing what's going happening on the western side of the state feel free to reach out anytime. 

Currently, we own and operate around 1,900 lots in 12 states, and headquartered in Phoenix, AZ (1176 E Warner Road Gilbert AZ).

I have a home in Flagstaff, AZ that is on 2.5 acres and backs up to undeveloped state land. 

I am also a licensed EMT, and would love to provide housing for travel nurses, contractors, etc. in that realm since I can relate to them in previous jobs that I've had.I'm looking to invest in these states preferably: Georgia (1st choice - preferably near or south of ATL or in/near Savannah), Alabama, South or North Carolina, and Florida.

I have investors in both states.  

I should have mentioned that I am out of state in Colorado and I'm not connected yet to contractors that I trust to do a rehab.

I think I'll start out where I live and probably branch out outnof state once I build my knowledge and experience. 

This was my first home purchase, out of state.
