My local market is cost prohibitive to invest in and the thought of assembling a "team" of unknowns in another market was scary. 

Connecting with local investors and agents can also give you insights into up-and-coming areas that fit your budget and goals.Good luck!

Hey Adam, great to hear of another local investor.

I think their logic was that a family with 12 people (parents and 10 boy children) would have difficulty finding a suitable house with say 6 bedrooms.In addition to the Federal guideline, some local ordinances address occupants both tenants and owners. 

I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.Thank you! 

I recommend you discuss and plan this in depth with a local lender who knows your market well. 

I’m Meghan, and wanted to connect with locals in NH!

Quote from @Saquan Johnson: I would reach out to local rehabbers in that area and also higher-producing agents to get this info.

But for the last 3-4 years local residents have decided it was cheaper to just take the groceries. 

Also, test them with real scenarios before hiring—this strategy can get chaotic, and you need someone who can keep things running smoothly.Are you self-managing, or do you have a local team handling things on the ground?
