*Note, i lived in this house for a while before i flipped it.The buyer kept saying how cool it was that i put a mosaic back splash behind the tub. it was a simple green lizard design, wading in a pool.  

Hey @Jay Green I feel you!

Population growth is a big one, you want to be somewhere that's growing, since that creates pressure on prices and rent long-term and ensures a stable tenant pool.Price/rent ratio, average home price, and net job growth are several other things to look in to.Consider getting David Greene's Long Distance Real Estate Investing book - it has a whole chapter on analyzing out-of-state markets.

@Ben LangebartelsIf you can truly get 800 in rent then it’s a good deal .all you guys that went in on it need to grab a paint brush each and get rid of that hideous green color on your house

Yes, small prefabricated dwellings could be in the roadmap, but so are green building materials, standalone houses, and multi-unit complexes.

The email I sent was a modified version of David Greens email to realtors in his Long Distance Real Estate Investing book. 

I'm pretty green to investing but have done a lot of research so would love everyones feedback on my model.

I'm really green to this whole house hack process but i dont want to let fear keep me from diving in.

For example, would David Greene's Long-Distance Real Estate Investing be suitable for audio?
