So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

This goes on until you have final agreement. 

This experience has provided me with a strong foundation in acquisitions, valuations, and deal sourcing.

This has been my experience and I live in an ultra-competitive market.

What about while I live there I wanted to rent out the other unit or units, is this allowed under USDA?

This means you’ll pay short-term capital gains tax at your regular income tax rate.2.

(c) Do any of you have some specific market considerations I should take into account OR that I should be researching (high taxes, pertinent rent laws, etc.)?

This is a fine example of where to research out of state investments as the housing prices to purchase are still reasonable and low (not like California where I am and entry level house SFR is a million dollars). 

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.

But, this being a larger syndicator they do have professionally made presentations and due diligence documents for you to look through.
