The 3 and 4 BR units on the other side of town were not experiencing this. 

We're in a small town so we ask our bank loan officer who is involved in the community for a CPA reference.

This influx of workers will naturally drive demand for housing, retail, and other services in the surrounding areas, especially in smaller towns and cities that haven't seen major growth in decades.

I called every bank in my town (9 I believe) and got one financial officer to admit this is exactly how this works.

Very cool thank you for the post.I have thought about a laundry mat with 3 apartments on top in my town, I even know the lot I want to put it on. 

Tons of growth coming all over town with new developments constantly, plus the weather is great 9 months out of the year!

There are much more landlord friendly towns in New Jersey.

They all said the original contractor’s work had been fine—even the tiling was far better than what the 2ndcontractor did as a redo.I heard later that Joey, the 2nd contractor was spreading it around town the reason he hadn’t finished my job was because I was slowing things down by changing everything and, also, that I owed him a lot of money.

There are a couple of things that I would think about here, the timeframe you want to work with this agent (can be 1 month or 2 months or a longer time), whether you could do it for a specific area/city/town, or you could do it for a couple of properties you see.

They’re familiar with the towns, businesses, and, in some cases, even the commercial tenants, which can work in your favor.
