But for now it works like a charm!

The housing stock in Bremerton is older and many houses are in need of some repair, but a lot of them are also charming (wood floors, leaded glass windows etc). 

I managed a large portfolio of properties for all types of landlords and investors, eventually working my way up to run all of their operations in Colorado which encompassed 2,100+ units, 40+ employees, 3 regional offices and hundreds of investors. 

Maybe you can create a Meet-up group that encompasses NY and the surrounding areas, NJ, PA and test trial if people would be interested in a meeting on a monthly or even a quarterly basis.  

@Rich Hupper @Albert Bui To Rich's point/question: Could you could create a corporation which had a line of credit that encompassed multiple properties which were held in the corporations name?

I hear conflicting stories from different investors every day and although I respect the enthusiasm of my potential clients, I am always brought back to the reality that is Charm City.  

For me, Dallas is just a big city with a lot to do and see but not what I would consider a beautiful/charming city (same problem I have with Atlanta) and I'm not a fan of 100+ degree weather with the humidity (natural disasters are up for debate).

I'm not sure you can find any books on the topic that would encompass what is spelled out here on BP, particularly in this thread.

Home was lived in and built by owner and has charm to it.

Quote from @Jake Soper: If any of you mail to these prospects, I can show you some simple methods to put your postcards ahead of the generic ones you see on PS. works like a charm in competitive postcard markets like FL.
