I used to live in the lower mainland but invested where the numbers work like Vancouver Island or Northern BC.

There are a few different areas I like to target, depending on your goals and budget.We also host a monthly real estate networking event -- "NorCal Real Estate Mastermind" -- First Wednesday of every month at 6pm at Lucid Winery on R St.

With a low 4.75% rate but minimal cash flow ($50–$125/month), your equity could likely work harder elsewhere.

Since you're relocating to a new market, the best advice (like someone mentioned) is to figure out where YOU will be happy.

I don't do this for a living and have no real world experience, but at 40% down, even with a 7% int rate, that seems like a high monthly payment.

@Angel PerezSounds like you are dealing with a C5 property. 

It seems like there are so many limitations to buying real estate with self-directed IRAs. 

Add thoughtful touches like a Keurig or French press, USB chargers, and local travel guides.

Once they do so, they get access to Roku free channels & can login to any streaming service they'd like with their own login.

@Michael Overall, The length of time that a DST is open is going to keep you from doing this over time like @Jon Taylor said.
