@An Duong I am pretty open as to the specific area, although ideally wanted to be within an hour or so of my house in Medway.

@Patrick Ng it depends on your goals.

W R O N G.

Quote from @Bruce K Ng: So I'm looking at a commercial property in Los Angeles county and this area has rent control in place The property is a 5 unit, and they are all 1/1's.

I lived in Minot for 3 l-o-n-g winters when my hubby was stationed there.  

@Rich Ng has some good advice and that's really the best you can do at this time since investors are snapping properties left and right and the very good ones are rarely available!

@Courtney Duong @Adam CoxI'll send over now.

Never seen one  If our area there are a lot of the 30,000 houses, most of the 20k-30k houses are bought by local landlords, or investors and as to the out of state guys for 40-60 and they try and manage them for a few years and then try and  sell them after they get fed up tryi ng to manage them from a distance, most management companies do not like to manage that price range of properties and the tenants they typically draw. 

By far my biggest concern is the difficulty of managing properties from such a l-o-n-g distance.
