@Teddy MaoThere are many REI opportunities in different markets - markets in the Midwest and Southeast of the country are really great - where not only are the purchase prices reasonable for most RE investors, but the homes are turnkey (new builds or completely rehabbed homes, tenant ready, systems 10 years of life remaining on them, property management teams in place) with appreciating home value AND appreciating rent.

It will enable you to continue living for free while your residents pay off your mortgage for you.There are several turnkey companies in the middle/southern part of the country where you can buy high quality single families for under 275k in landlord friendly states.

I'm trying to find something from them or anyone showing occupancy rates historically as I love seeing some of that data - as both a builder of str cabins in eastern tennessee and someone holding str cabins in eastern tennessee. :-) Any chance you have a link or two to the report? 

DC is also one of the most "renter friendly" places in the country, so really make sure you do your homework and consult an attorney when writing up your lease to make sure that your property and your lease is in compliance with rental law. 

All across the country.
