@Anthony Fanucci Most of the cities you mentioned have metro train nearby and all will offer strong rentals.

.), 1/3 podcast interviews and video lessons, and 1/3 existential ruminations.Since none of the larger nearby metros, nor the area in general, is very attractive, long distance investing seems more appealing.

While setting up a couple short term rentals in the area(s) nearby.

My wife and I own a duplex which we house hack over near Bi-Mart.

As the years have gone by, my biggest competitors have become the nearby hotels.

Port Angeles is where the main visitor center is for Olympic national park, the black ball ferry runs to/from victoria from there (when the border is open), a few small casinos nearby, not far from Forks and coastline, and the olympic discovery trail runs through.

Looking for Fulton or Gwinett counties primarily but open to other counties nearby.

(if this is too in the weeds let me know haha...I'll get that google research machine spun up) Lastly, I was looking into Downtown and Old Colorado City before you mentioned these neighborhoods because I suspect the nearby amenities will drive appreciation (and I sorta want to live in these neighborhoods anyways).

I'm crossing my fingers for your deal to close, that's really cool.What you are saying is on point, I have actually heard of nearby towns that were booming and might be more accessible.

(Meets 1% rule)An opportunity presented to possibly buy a side by side duplex in a B+ neighborhood in a nearby townPrice is 220k , but would need most likely a 240k-250k offer to be competitive.
