@Jeffery Jones you understand you'll be buying Class C & D properties, not in the best of areas?

People start moving in with their TOH homes (back in the day when everyone could afford one) and the park starts to fill up. 

I understand that completing long distances BRRRRs is a different kind of animal, so I am hoping to glean insight from investors who have successfully gone down this path.

I don't recommend throwing the baby out with the bath water, and definitely make sure you understand the nature of the Mentor you choose.BP is a great resource to meet some amazing people. 

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.You're feeling FOMO because you see people all over BP, YouTube, and Instagram bragging about their success.

This will help you understand the qualifying requirements, key factors to consider when purchasing, and how to assess whether a property might be a good investment at first glance.

Sadly, many people treat them like a commodity.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.

Drive around the neighborhoods to understand the lay of the land - if you have someone who will take you around and explain, better yet. 

i understand a true duplex might be a lot more expensive, but i think it's at least worth continuing to research and keeping an eye on.and sticking to my original point, OOS can be tough.
