I live east of Parker, so I am considering the Parker, Castle Rock, Elizabeth, Franktown, Centennial, southern Aurora areas, and maybe even further West into the more southern region of the Denver Metro area.  

Has anyone found a good way to create a specific geographic region and get automatic updates on changes to inventory.

(yeah, think 50% drop in rents on your cash flow statement)5) not worry about losing all your money and going into foreclosure and starting over (hell, its only time and money)Having said all that, I am constantly circling around to this: San Francisco in specific, NOT the bay area, is so unique and so politically and geographically constrained that if you live here, you would be foolish to not focus a HUGE amount of your REI time and energy looking right here.

Openly advertising for stupid investors willing to overpay is a unique strategy to implement that plan. :-).

I think the city offers a unique market given the presence of COP/P66. 

greetings, I am a former realtor, and also formerly owner of a property management company, I got out of the management and realtor business just to focus on my own properties, Rochester is definitely a unique market and if you'd like I can offer up my insist.

Just make sure to have an attorney verify that you've dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's.The due-on-sale issues are not unique to Fannie / Freddie - that's going to be true of any bank loan or other lender, more than likely.

Welcome to the forum Catherine, I'm  a local investor in the Niagara Region.

The best part in my opinion is the wealth of knowledge regarding your specific region.
