I am an experienced real estate agent/investor based out of Columbus, OH, but spend part of my time at a family house in Ellicottville, NY.

Investing in a market with a strong and growing economic base can help reduce the chances of depreciation. 

Unless this is an opportunity where you are going to come out with a robust knowledge base and the investor will be a complete open bookd i don't see why you would do this.

Your decision should be based on where do you want to be in 5 years 10 years etc.

Just trying to get a better understanding of the type of policy/agreements I need to cover all bases. 

Is it usually a 6 month seasoning before being able to go for new appraisal and getting financed based on the ARV rather than cost.I've done a lot of reading and from what I understand this is possible, just looking for verification, recommendations on path forward or alternate plan, and also some lender referrals for when this takes place. 

Some may be great options for base annual cashflow.
