But for an OOS investor one consideration is access to support, first of all PM & contractors, and you have more choices in the much larger Milwaukee metro area than in a smaller submarket.

I do not need to push CA RE and have little to gain which places me in a different category than many of the people who have posted on this thread including the OP who is a realtor, property manager, and sells mentoring (at what appears a reasonable price) in his Ohio markets..I simply notice that L.A. is burning because the mayor cut fire support by $17 million dollars, she wanted to cut it more.

Hey Jerryll,Apologies as well, to clarify my post, the property is currently still with the owner (off-market) and I reference the information on the MLS since it is the information that's currently available to the public, so just providing a frame of reference to support the info in my post.

Whereas for me (at this stage of my investing career and my personal life) if a project is profitable and supports my ability to live somewhere with better cost of living and quality of life, the balance between the two can be just as valuable. 

Guys are putting up beam support posts. 

A friend of mine rented her property near a base and connected with military housing officers at the Family Support Center, which helped secure steady tenants.

Wow, Drew, this is invaluable advice and I am very appreciative of the support.
