I am an Eastern IL University alumni and I visit frequently enough since I still have family and friends in the area.

I'd hope that in most markets, there are some landlord rep firms that are very active in networking, e.g. go to (and hit hard at) all the local and national ICSC conferences, other associations, etc.. 

I attended a VRM Intel conference recently and someone pointed out that everyone in our area calls this thing 'nightly rental.'

There are several a big REO conferences and it's crazy with thousands of agents swarming the bank reps.

Eastern PA is a sellers market and Berks didn't do a lot.   

None of us knows what changes will come in the future.Respectfully submitted,Kenneth Rishel, AdministratorRishel Family TrustPost Script: If you are attending the IMHA Annual Conference on May 17-19th we can talk about this in person.

I'm fairly new to the investing field and i have been reading and watching videos on youtube everyday (Currently 11/22/2015  2:38 am eastern).

Where I live in the mission district, and the entire south and eastern parts of the city are usually fog free!

The eastern shore of md is a great market imo, you can still get new construction under 250k & get pretty close to the 1% rule on new construction which is crazy to me,now that said I’d be very wary about talking too much cash out of your home, it kills cash flow because you are paying two loans, and while I do believe interest rates are coming down being on a revolver is a constant risk, I’d definitely have a plan to pay it off quickly if you get a heloc.

I primarily invest in the Wilkes barre/Scranton area, but I'm open to anywhere in eastern Pennsylvania.
