The properties that I had originally comped were in a completely different neighborhood, not very far but nonetheless different neighborhood and crossed a blvd. 

Best wishes to you in your journey and as fellow NJ investors, perhaps our paths may cross in the future and we can be helpful to each other!

Hi Everyone,I recently got a new job thatallows me to live remotely in any part ofthe country.

Experts say such deals have been used by foreign leaders who have stolen money from their countries, human traffickers and other criminals.

@Sarah BockovenNY / NJ state tax laws are one of the most complex in the country - I would look for a professional within the tri-state area.Below are some tips to find a Local CPA that specializes in real estate1) Attend a Local REIA / Real Estate meetup and see who other investors are using as a CPA2) Network with other investors from your City/State that you find on bigger pockets and see who they use as a CPA3) Look for CPA's with good google/yelp reviews where 'real estate' is mentioned in the review.4) Verify that your CPA is licensed.

Pick your number about how many stay in Texas, but something like 2million immigrants have crossed the border this year.   

you will get all sorts of advice from those all over the country but its not worth anything.You simply walk into the planning department of the city / county that regulates land divisions in that area and it looks like a high priced area ..

If you are having trouble finding someone local, try one of the BP CPA's that work with investors all over the country. 

To soften the blow, you could even print a recent article that explains why rents across the country (or your particular area) are increasing at such a high rate.This gives you 3rd party verification and shows you are not just pulling numbers out of thin air.I imagine the tenants will not be surprised, and will likely be wondering what took so long for the rents to increase over the years.I read a recent news article about a lady in Plano, TX that got an increase notice of $750…yes $750 on top of existing rent rate. 

Because the countries, cultures and languages in the EU are so vastly different, a platform like this would be harder to achieve in the EU (not impossible, but a lot harder).
