Hello all, I’m new to the long distance investing.

If you are going to be house hacking and renting out the rooms in your house then you'll probably want to be walking distance from a university such as CSULB, CSUF, or Chapman University. 

I drive through Oceanside daily on my commute up to OC for work.

no need for management although we do these at a distance. 

I commute 120 miles a day and this car reduces my energy fee per day from on average $12.83 to $4.33, all tolls being equal.

I would have kept this as a rental, but I moved outside of my state's allowable distance to act as landlord.

I think we'd look to some sort of controlled access solution and fortunately this property is in a downtown area and  walking distance to many amenities so parking shouldn't be an issue but something to look into, the OM actually calls out less than 1 space per unit so that might be a concern.Anybody have experience with elevator maintenance contracts or CapEx? 

I do think the real story is still the fact that it's hard to make the management and growth strategy work.I would caution against doing it at a distance.

We could hear sirens in the distance. 

I'm a New Yorker and one of the reasons I invest at a distance, aside from the 2-3% deals, cost of entry etc.....Was the favorable landlord tenant laws.
