I would love to do this but I have called around and realtors are not interested in this unless its directly their territory  Im look all over tri-county  not just loveland or forest park.

At this point, we're in "making the best of a bad situation" territory. 

When investing in an unfamiliar asset or territory, I recommend using an institutional lender who has experience.

I talked to a bank yesterday and he said there weren't any issues paying back the mortgage in a short-term, but this is just new territory for me and 100% confident. 

I plan to buy there down the road myself Isn't that gang territory?

Hi @Dillon McGough - I'm sure you have found the requirements for an applicant who holds a current real estate license in another state (or U.S. territory or Canadian jurisdiction) that has been on active status within the previous three (3) years and that is equivalent to NC's provisional or "full" broker license, but here are the requirements again for reference - directly from the NC Real Estate Commission. 

Every state has their laws regarding owner financing, licensing for mortgage brokers, attorneys, etc. and it's important not to delve into that territory if you are unlicensed.

4) What is the best way to transition into foreign territory once someone is comfortable with their market and ready to scale outside, say, their region of primary residence?

Prices are high and inflated (to a certain degree) in markets that were once recently seen as up-and coming territories.

This is definitely new territory for me.
