Most investors will find you calling them out of the blue as an invasion of privacy. 

Traded in the security clearance and dried out sinuses for humidity, bugs, and ocean breezes.

If Hilton head is white collar, myrtle beach is the blue collar cousin.

I was thinking of putting in a green/aqua blue carpet to go with the grey as I thought it would be soothing. 

My wife and I recently moved to Ocean City, MD and we just completed our first BRRR.  

Garland is blue-collar and schools are OK but not rated as well as other suburbs. 

Our goal would be to continually buy and re-lock in our rate, down to 4-5% within the next 2-3+ years.If we were to achieve this, the property would break even.Long term, we see this property as a great asset with steady appreciation, principal paydown, and tax benefits.We could also improve our personal living situation, by moving out of our other duplex unit, freeing up that unit to cashflow on that property, and moving into the nicer triplex unit with no shared walls and ocean views.

Just sharing my experience and thoughts.If you make it into town, I'd be glad to put you in touch with some wholesalers, plenty of people peddling turnkey property around here.If it were me going out of state, I'd suggest looking at more blue collar working class areas in the mid west where the culture is to pay your bills or you're a loser.

Hi Pal,Why not you sleep in the shed after fixing it up, and rent out the more desirable house for more money.You would essentially be living free, just you, your microwave and a mini fridge, use a blue porta-potty and shower down at the gym, get water from the house spigot out back.Then you would not even have to fix it up much, just enough to keep the spiders out.How much more a whole house would rent for vs a shed, and maybe put up a wooden privacy fence, so the renters would not see you coming and going.Tell them you are eccentric, or just like communing with nature.Good Luck!

My tenant just out of the blue asks “are you free today to install my new kitchen faucet and shower head?”
