Reason I ask is there are more 2-4 unit investment rentals in these states that have a better purchase to cash flow ratio versus NY.Each county is diferent buy NY has some crazy high taxes along with attorney state and higher fee's.   

And if you want an extra layer of confidence, find an investor-friendly real estate attorney or a knowledgeable friend who can help dissect the operating agreement.

But I'm not an immigration attorney. 

Rather, they are four former commercial real estate brokers, with one of them also an attorney in their 60s or 70s that have a true hands-on style of mentoring.

its very easy.. tehre are 35 states that do NOT require any license to do NON owner occupied loans.. very simple  talk to local attorney have them prep your note and mortgage and your good to go.. should not cost more that 1k or so for the docs..

I can PM you an attorney I have used for this. 

Again I’m not an attorney, this is just what makes the most sense for me.   

Its also a good idea to build relationships with realtors, contractors, insurance agents, real estate attorneys, and property managers in your area so take advantage of events, conferences, and meetups.

I'd definitely consult an RE attorney who is versed with dealing with these. 

I am in contact with an attorney in RI and we are looking at possibly doing a joint filing against Teshaw.
