Hi Adam,I've always been a real estate guy but exposed my personal portfolio quite heavily to a regional bank ETF.I guess time will tell if I'll be a "Hero" or "Zero" lolCome on you Fed and reduce those rates 😁Real estate is and always will be my bread and butter tho.You can't beat the safety of a "brick and mortar" investment per se.My best advice would be if you are going to go down the path of investing in out of state rentals to have a growth mindset.Buying 1 or 2 isn't worth the risk or hassle and you might as well invest in your own back yard.10+ years in the industry and my most unsatisfied investors are the one's that build smaller portfolio's.If a property goes vacant and takes a few months to get it back performing, with a small portfolio that could impact cashflow of 30-50% for that year.Our investors that own 7,8 or 10+ properties, don't even feel it if 1 or 2 go vacant.Just my opinion and wishing you much success
