I know that in the states I invest in the sale of the property triggers the assessors office OR the school board to know that there has been a sale of the property, most likely at a higher dollar amount than the prior purchase.

I'm live in Old bridge, NJ and due to high property taxes in New Jersey, PA seems like the best state to invest in(Tavel time ) I'm trying to identify rental markets and research, while trying to establish a team.I've done some research and came up with a few areas in PA include Allentown, Lehigh Valley, Bethlehem, Scranton, reading and Kutztown I'm hopping to cash flow between $100-200 per unit is possible (with property management), and can reasonably expect some appreciation in the next 10-20 years (2-4% per year would be ideal, though achieving positive cashflow on my first purchase is my #1 focus).

Because there is no HUD education/training of 203k Consultants, HUD states that the lender is responsible for everything the 203k Consultant does and this is why HUD requires the lender to select the 203k Consultant. 

Ohio is one of those states that restricts lenders requiring a Prepayment Penalty.

Personally, we started investing in Jacksonville while we were living out of state starting in 2018.

We only invest out of state/province as our market is not good for buy and hold strategy.

It's good to note as well that you're not "locked in" from using one or the other, just simply how the activity was during the year.I will also state that you don't get a choice in the matter for how it's reported for 2023.

Most my clients are out of state and I have a furnishing/design crew as well as co-hosting services at a discount for clients to really help maximize your returns and be as hands-off as possible.

We have some but they are good for New York, and other states back east.

I also buy long term rentals out of state and just put an offer on one in Arkansas.
