If you're looking for cash flow (like the 1% rule) and amazing appreciation potential, I do recommend a market like Columbus Ohio. 

Ian - do you have any recommendations for a good securities law attorney? 

Do you have recommendation on Agent who can do this?

Any recommendations?

I would recommend reaching out to a few local lenders in your area.

Are there any markets you would recommend for long distance investing?

(normally recommended, especially if you are a landlord)- Water Backup: For water damage due to the backup of Sewers or Drains.- Personal Articles: Coverage for belongings that have a special or collectors valuesuch as Jewelry, Furs, Fine Arts, Collectibles, etc...Your age should not be a factor on the pricing but, depending on the company these other factors may get you credits:- Insurance Score (company pulls certain info out of your credit report).

The BiggerPockets community has excellent book recommendations, such as The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner.

I would recommend that they invest in an inexpensive 'white noise' machine to help muffle the sound but that no property is completely sound proof and the upstairs tenants are well-aware of their concerns and are respectful.Always 'entertaining,' huh?

I recommend you send notice earlier than required and by multiple avenues to verify receipt.
