I work 35 miles from home making not very much and I have no formal education.

Danger: Fairly new investor trying to invest in multifamily in a out of state market, thousands of miles away, with little market familiarity, no well establish & trusted professional network there, and money burning a hole in their pocket is one of the riskiest conditions I can imagine, second only to perhaps trying to flip in that remote market.

Background: The house is located in Brookhaven, PA and is a 4 br/2 ba rancher on a dead-end street approximately 1 mile from Widener University and 25 minutes to Philadelphia.

My investment company typically purchases buy and hold income properties and it's hard not to notice the money left on the table when you make a half million dollar purchase or sale, so I decided to become licensed. 

I found a program where I could draw a 10 mile radius around my own house.  

Is there any other way right now unless you want to pay a half million for garbage?

you must be in Clarensville school district, 7 mile and Inkster, which is junk.  

In fact, half of multifamily Stockton seems to have been built between 1978 and 1980:).

Is there anyone you could bring in as a partner to bring the money for the rehab for half the profit?
