The main challenge with that was that the escrow agent hadn’t sent their wire info and I was leaving the country the next day at noon but was able to do it online as I traveled.

I'm even willing to travel into New York or Philadephia so long as the accountant is familiar with NJ and notes.

I travel back for an inspection and at closing.  

Also when you remodel keep water usage in mind.By any chance is the property in Santa Clara.

International travel and business are my passions.

Also want to travel with no daily worries.  

Would love for the class to be in Manhattan, Brooklyn, or Queens but I'm willing to travel to parts of the Tri-State for a good instructor. 

At the end of the redemption time period You can apply for a Deed to the property.The next question once You decide on what You want to invest in, how far do You want to travel, for most beginners who has a full time job, in my opinion would be as close to home as possible, until such time You can afford to travel. 

I have contributed in writing several real estate books, written many articles and blogs on real estate investing as well as created more than 200 instructional videos on real estate investing currently being posted on Twitter - Joe Jurek CPA and You Tube - Joe Jurek Real Estate Investing Adventures.I also wrote a book and made an infomercial on how to profit from leveraging Craigslist and eBay, entitled “Buy Local and Sell Global”.Having traveled through almost all 50 states, I currently reside in Central Florida with my family and I enjoy spending time at the beach or all the theme-parks. 

The owner is out of state and can't travel due to health reasons.
