I am interested in looking at out of state investment opportunities as the high cost of living in NJ really does make it very investor friendly at the moment. 

Trick a friend of mine did many many years ago.

These can sometimes offer better cash flow, especially if you’re in a family-friendly area with unique features like extra square footage, an ADU, or flexible layouts.

I am pretty jaded now on how AHP being on a well known RE podcast seemed like it was just 2 friends talking but in fact those podcasters were paid to promote.

It would be a huge mistake to jump into a strategy without understanding how to deal with problems that may very well arise, more especially when the property is in tenant-friendly states. 

One of my best friends paid cash for a "handyman's special" trailer in 2021 for $9k.

Friends with rentals have generally indicated that the cosigner is either nowhere to be found or ignores all communication when needed.

I have a good friend who has some great data on all the different neighborhoods - I am happy to share that with you.Also, if you don't have a lender already, I have some rockstars that I know like and trust.What sport do you play?

People will rent homes in that area because they cannot yet afford to buy, but hope to buy a newer home in the future and keep the kids in the same school system and around their same friends.

Actually, a friend once mentioned a unit in Eugene that had to be re-leased after a nasty storm tore off part of the roof.. it’s gritty, hands-on stuff like that which rounds out your perspective.At the end of the day, you don’t need a flawless blueprint to get started.
