When you get in your car and drive off your driveway - you have to follow the traffic rules such as: when you come to a stop sign - you have to stop, when you come to the red light - you have to stop and wait for the green light in order to turn left, you have to drive on the right side of the road - you can't drive on the left side.

Think Henderson down to Mayfield and east to Bowling Green.

David Greene and Brandon Turner are big fans. 

Talk to @Jonathan Greene about his meetup- which is also virtual if I remember correctly. 

Without razor sharp local knowledge, I'd be concerned you'd eat the capital gains or settle for a sub par asset if you're going the 1031 route. 10 cap properties are out there though possibly in less desirable peripheral markets, and likely requiring you/ a carefully chosen team to be local for some time to stabilize and put management in place.

Quiet, Green away from the hustle and bustle of DC.

I definitely encourage you to read David Greene's book, Long Distance Real Estate Investing.

@Chris Barnes I would recommend David Greene's book "Long-Distance Real Estate Investing".

If we bought a house, the longterm cumulative effect looks like this: The grey line is property value, the green line is your equity in the property, and the red line is cumulative payments.

thanks so much @jjpawloski and Chloe Green.
