Lots of cities have restrictions..Arlington limits to a fairly small area of town, Ft.

Asking me for LLC docs few times over and quoting on a rate sheet that was for single family and not town house.

Towns in New Jersey can be wildly crooked and will try to assess you for things they missed on prior renovations before you even bought the property, which technically they can do.

There has been an influx of out of state investors and in town investors aquiring propertys as of lately.

Seacoast NH, for example, has some great potential with short-term rental markets (Airbnb, VRBO), especially in towns like Portsmouth or Hampton, but the regulations can be a bit tricky.

This translates to high rental demand and potential for appreciation.Diverse Opportunities: From bustling metropolises like Miami and Orlando to charming beach towns and vacation destinations, Florida caters to a wide range of investment strategies.

A lot of out of town investors like to buy property over here due to the cash flow that they can receive.
