My first one was about 15mins away and I enjoyed the ability to drive by and check on it often.

You can't create a scaled wholesale operation by driving for dollars, using "true people search" and calling with your cellphone.

Move on out: There is an old saying in real estate for first time home buyers: drive until you qualify.

For the last three properties I sold they were selling in one day and buyers were offering $20k to $50k more than my asking price I sold all my homes in Las Vegas and one of the reasons I sold was because the HOA's were driving me crazy with their monthly fees, complaints and fines.If you are into Bnb then sell, but it seems like a high percent if cities are banning them, or putting restrictions on them to make operating them difficult and expensive.

A different approach is placing a “tester” ad on Craigslist (posting a fictitious sf rental deal to see if the specs you choose can drive contact) and when receiving calls about this property you simply say “It is no longer available, however, would you like to be added to my investor list to know about the next one?”

It's my personal belief that those who are just now catching wind about how great Denver is will continue to drive the Denver housing market higher and higher.

I don’t want to pigeonhole myself but I suppose ideally within a 5-6 hour drive from the middle of Atlanta (where I am currently) would be best.

If you have the passion and the drive that will show and other will want to work with you. 

But what some investors and aspiring homeowners may not know, is that we have big firms with insane buying power entering the market driving up prices and of course limiting the supply for the everyday investor or aspiring homeowner.

I have a steady salaried income and have spent a lot of time driving for dollars and running numbers in the Mooresville, NC and Charlotte, NC market ( any rental owners in the area, realtors, property management please feel free to message...
