For several reasons (property taxes, politics), I would prefer to begin real estate investing somewhere other than locally. 

I'm thinking about buying a property in NC.

If interest rates drop, a ton of people are going to get in and real estate prices are going to go up a ton if you’re back in bidding wars.

I've personally done just about every rehab scenario, properties I've lived in, properties bought as investments and even properties bought at auction.You've gotten good advice from folks on this list.

Does anyone have any experience with his company and is willing to share their thoughts?

Pretty standard and we've definitely done it in the past with a lot of real estate agents we work with that invest. 

Has your property been improved by getting the WH?

Hello,I am interested in purchasing a recently renovated $195K property as a 'secondary' home for the next 4 years to use as a future LTR.

Went and viewed about 10 properties, made an offer on one without a buyer's agent, so that the selling agent would double end the deal and they accepted a below ask offer at a time when prices were climbing.How did you finance this deal?

@Tomoko HaleWith STRs its not just purchasing the property.
