I am looking at a few properties out there, but live in Boston so I'd rather have someone on the ground to manage.

@Aaron Montague I grew up in the Boston area (Malden) and property values seem high in your area.

Hello all,I too am trying to find some used coin ops in the Boston/Southern NH area.  

Hi Folks,I have a dear friend in Boston, MA who owns a duplex.

I live right next to Boston.

I'm new as well, but I'm learning as much as I can possibly absorb by reading the materials here and talking with people at some of the many active REIA's in the Boston area.

The 1 - 10 comes from some factual research (ie crime stats, school quality, transportation, etc) but it is also largely, heavily influenced by how I feel when I walk or drive through the area at daytime and in the evening.When I am really conflicted about a particular rating I sometimes add a + or - modifier to the letter, or use a decimal for the number.

The fact that you can live in near NYC for that little is an impressive feat IMO.Another thing to consider is your transportation costs.

Focused around Boston and networking throughout the North East.

I moved from Boston and a military town in NC.
