That magical piece of paper we all call a lease, is really mostly a one way street.

I don't need a complete virtual assistant, just a street address and box.  

Now it’s probably the Midwest,But my the time you get to the Midwest and establish a footprint and “street credibility” with the brokers and sellers another market may be strong.If you are going to invest out of area, you will need to spend “face to face” “boots on the ground time” there.

Mine, yours, the one down the street.

Quote from @Andrew Street: Hey there Kevin! 

Just look back on what the expectations/forecasts were of interest rates at the end of 2023, nobody (even wall street) seemed to be listening to Powell's meetings and were overly optimistic.

One of them came down this street and tore off the roof of my neighbor's house right across the street Not sure about the apartments mentioned though...

Use Google Street Scene.

For example a property with a $100,000 door cost and very little capex is going to be a much better deal than a property across the street that is $80,000 per door but has significant deferred maintenance.So the analysis is preliminary and either can be used, but at end of the day you need to deep dive into the entire picture.
