Even after moving 2.5 years ago, I continued to self-manage because I had a solid network of connections that made it pretty easy to handle remotely.That said, it eventually came down to wanting my time back.

The second company had a PM contract and due to other reasons we did not continue their services after a couple of months so tax stuff did not arise.

It has been a great rental and would continue to be one but I think I am ready to sell it!

Didn't get into rentals on pupose but it's working out well and I want to continue to learn and develop my portfoilo.

(And - full disclosure - I will be using a mail forwarding address also and only occasionally actually hosting meetings at that location... it's like a 'WeWork' space, I generally work from home and my managers are on-site at the parks...)To everyone's continued success, and due diligence,-jl-

If you’re looking to continue to invest in your backyard, it helps to network with as many locals in the industry as you can.

Wealth is created much faster with financing (OPM).Continued success!

build a multifamily property and continue that strategy. building is a different strategy that allows you to still enter hte market below value. this is what we build in columbus ohio for investors it's a 3 story walk up infill that's about 24x40 and 2 bedrooms 1 bath stacked 3 times. it's identical to like 65% of apartments that are built. you'd need probably 100-150k in proceeds.

This lets both the investor and the builder do what they do best.I think this will continue to be a growing part of the investing landscape. 

We are getting up to our third order soon as we continue to grow rental portfolio.
