That's why I started looking out of state.

I fund land flippers in all these states and at your age I would be hunting down a parcel now U want to eventually move to...

I also suspect inflation will drive continued migration to lower cost of living / lower tax states.  

In the future, I plan to have more rentals but more interested in out-of-state investing than in state so I currently only have the one rental.

I have made my own list of leads as well with some properties that I find vacant, probate, tax lien. but have only helped an out of state realtor on a deal a yr ago. and 2025 I would like to have the right people to go to with questions and or properties when I talk/find home owners that are willing to get rid of the property as well.
