You always need local boots on the ground in some fashion.

A little background about me: I live in Western NY. have a psychology degree from St.

I agree with Abdul that it is wise to analyze by neighborhood as opposed to zip code in Western Pa. 15221 is a perfect example as it covers a lot of types of neighborhoods with different pros and cons.

I agree with @John Underwood @John C..You would be surprised at how good a response you can get my old fashioned face to face conversations.

I think a lot of the near western suburbs have inventory in that price point.

Call me old fashioned, but seems to me if you make an agreement, you should honor it.

I work in Boston but invest in western mass which tends to still cash flow pretty well.

I am a disposition agent working for New Western in St.

When I think about where I can allocate my precious capital for maximum STR investment, I think of Western Michigan.

With much research, many conversations and a good pile of luck we're cash flowing on all properties and are trying to refinance two of our initial deposits out.In Spain I looked here I've got family, in Madrid's western suburbs (Majadahonda, Villanueva de la Cañada) and in Las Palmas (Canarias), where I'm originally from.
