But Seattle is home to much of our family and I am ready for a fresh new "me"..

Before purchasing an income property, pay careful attention to the financial statements and remember to factor in a property manager which will charge between 8 - 10%.If you are close to retirement, I may consider investing in a duplex where you can move to when you are ready.

In addition, you will find tons of information here about property acquisition, long term hold strategies, etc...so be ready to read and interact!
