@Da Shiek Woodard I am in a very similar boat as you! 

@Steve VaughanI am in a similar boat got only two units, I am occupying one of them and renting the other, it’s not scaling well so I am thinking to go multiplex at least an 8 plex in my next investment, commisions will eat away all the profits was thinking to go with redfin

Just my opinion as someone who has been in the same boat with Philly’s abnormally large xfer tax.

I'm in your same boat, I need both for a rehab.

I'm a boat Captain on the Ms river.

Hi @Cris Mullen,I am in the same boat as you, and have been researching markets away from my home base for investments, as I live in Denver and the market here is priced high, and it is not easy as logging onto the MLS to spot potential deals for long term investing (there are deals here, but there is a lot of due diligence needed and contacts to find them).I think that investing at a distance is fine, and there are many people on BP who do just that.  

@Chris Moody I am also in the same boat as you let's connect!

He would rather be fishing, and as long as money’s trickling in to put gas in the boat, keep the lights on and buy some food he’s good.

@Lou Ruggieri - I am also in the same boat as you and am curious about what criteria experienced investors are using when gauging potential areas.Currently I have been doing my research with the variables that you have listed plus some of the following: •Education System - How desirable are the schools? 

We are in the same boat.....I have checked with Ansay & Assoc. in Port Washington.
