Matthews IVWhile there may be some benefit to have someone that's got a local presence, your tax strategies are going to be determined by your overall tax profile.  

And as far as streetside lines go,  this runs through a major commercially trafficked road, not a neighborhood and one of my friends owns a duplex just up the street and confirmed the gas line presence in his.

I have to make a presence anyway I can. 

He's got an Internet presence so you can easily Google him.

, I am an avid real estate investor (currently have 2 SFRs in the Charlotte area) and am looking to expand in the Pittsburgh area (while keeping a presence here in the Charlotte area). 

Under Massachusetts law, it is illegal to discriminate against someone because the presence of children might trigger a property owner's duties under the lead paint laws or because someone receives a housing subsidy, such as a Section 8 voucher, to pay for some or all of their rent.

It does not seemed to be managed well, property is a mess and has no online presence among other things.

(social media presence, website, branding, etc.)

You having an online presence and marketing tool to get high quality tenants quickly and efficiently. 

I've taken small steps to diversify what I do, including creating a social media presence to begin sharing some of my videography and drone skills.Currently, I fixed up a single family home which is on the market and I have a duplex that's been a great investment.
