I'm an out of state investor from California with $150k in cash looking to buy a single family in either Philadelphia PA or Columbus Ohio.Which area would you recommend between these two?

That being said if your new purchase will cash flow then I would recommend Brandon Turners new mortgage platform betterlife.com/ref.

Can put you in touch with my lender  Hi Eliott, who do you recommend in Texas for vacation home lenders? 

If you can't treat this like a business and get rid of bad renters, then I recommend you hire someone to do it for you. 

@Jessica Carcamo I would recommend going to meetups and meeting investors and others doing what you want to do and offer to bring in some capital and find the deal and partner with a seasoned investor on your first few. 

Anyone have a good recommendation for a contractor or handyman in Spokane, WA?

Are there any other books you recommend?

This is what I recommend for you:1.

Also if this is a good strategy do DSTs offer this type of investment and if so any recommendations. 

My brokerage hasn’t made it a requirement yet but has highly recommended it and the experienced agents are mostly doing it, especially the females.
