Maybe even closer to D.C. borders? 

The borders of Meridian/Nampa I believe will the developed on with new construction especially having big hospitals such as St Lukes and St Al's build new hospitals in those locations.

@Sharda Brown cross the border into nw Indiana.

I was thinking about jumping the border to RI where Real Estate is a little bit more affordable.

With that said, you are on the border of many great suburbs and close to shopping, outdoor activities and freeway/transit access.

I live right across the border in Indiana (Crown Point).

@Ryan Cox do you think proximity to the Canadian border would have much to do with rental markets?

I'm currently working around Hudson, Essex and Union county areas and possibly border counties.

Hello everyone,  Paul Brodeur here, just wanted to introduce myself here on Bigger pockets, I am from north Grosvenor dale Connecticut which borders central Massachusetts,  I am fairly new to real estate investing but it  has become my passion ,  I have been listening to the BP podcasts and have learned so much from them , I have owned a few rental properties in the past but had no idea what I was doing to be honest, I made a lot of mistakes and wish I would have found a place like BP back then , currently I am concentrating on finding fix and flips and wholesale deals in my northeast Connecticut and central Massachusetts areas, I am looking to learn and network and build great business relationships , thank you for looking at my post 

One of the big topics I will be looking for on the forums are the issues with "cross border investing" I have been absorbing the podcasts as fast as possible, as there is tones of great info and tips sitting in there.I am sure I will be searching for / posting LOTS of questions to get things off on the right foot!
