Seems pretty spot-on to me. 

WA is not a landlord friendly state, but if you are going to invest in WA, the eastern side has some hot spots like the tri-cities area that may yield good cash flow and appreciation and still be close enough for you to go there when you need to. 

It also puts your agent and lender in a tough spot where it could be a perceived "fraud for profit" and they could lose their license and face time/penalties if they knowingly cooperate.

That area is appreciating and is a great spot for those that want the convenience of Southend and walkability.

Sometimes if outside you will see a wet spot in the lawn.

If people want an area to build with understanding day 1 may not cash flow but in 10 years you will be in a really good spot the area I believe is perfect for that.

You can also contact your mortgage holder to see how to make a principle payment if you don’t pay electronically.

I can spot these a mile a way.

You just have to pick your spots.

@Jordan Ray This is spot on and something we run into constantly in the New England markets, where prices have climbed significantly over the past five years.
