Did you include property management to maintain distance from tenants?

That is a strategy that David Green describes in his Long Distance Investing book.

Are you comfortable with long distance or local cities?

Just be courteous to the owners, knock on the door and step back a good distance and have a good script ready.

Distance urban< .25mile, Suburb < 0.75 mile, rural can be over 1 mile.Age: less than 10 year apart.

My wife and I are buying our first long distance BRRR in Oberlin, Ohio.

All the building supplies in town have had super extended lead times because of plant shutdowns/general COVID constraints.

Yes, we have a lot of large plants (Dow, Formosa, Catepillar, and a few others) within driving distance.

I still don't know enough but I'm a learner (and usually a quick one) and I see me joining this amazing community as the first 'taking action' step.I put myself a short-term goal of becoming a long-distance owner of my first USA rental / flipping / wholesaling Real Estate property within the next 9 months.

Now, ALL of my out of town stuff (further than walking distance) has an experienced investor with it.
