Is it difficult to get an FHA loan on your first deal on a 4Plex?

I bought my first property a few blocks north of yours and I'm seeing more and more rehabbed comps and more new construction, so it's a great area to invest in.Just curious, how is your cash flow with the amount of rent you're charging?

Now north Idaho is a snowy, frozen place in the winter and our home is pretty far from skiing so that is out.

@Ani Kap Is your talking about Life Proof from HD it’s runs about 2.80/Sft through the Bid Room and average install is 1.50-2/sft in western Pa.

Ever been to rural North Carolina?

In DFW metro for example, market cap rate is generally lower in the north side since it's the path of progress.

in regards to @Will Fraser It might not always be the pure insurance premium cost that makes a difference on any given deal from state to state, but I will say the underlying cost such as a wind/hail deductible is generally higher in Oklahoma/North Texas than most places as we are historically more at risk.

I'm a registered E.I.T. in living in north shore MA and I'm trying to invest in the biddeford/sanford ME area.

I can totally understand the frustration of a long commute  (I complain about my 35-45m commute all the time,  but I'm a whiner)   so perhaps the thing to do if you don't yet have the funds to purchase a home closer to seattle (check out skyway and north burien for best deals close in to seattle)  maybe find a "cheap" apartment someplace closer that will rent for about the same amount or less than you can rent your other duplex unit for.   

I am currently live north of Seattle and i am looking to find a property with cashflow valued around 300k.
