I have read every single probate and direct mailing post by @Sharon Vornholt and continue to do so for encouragement, motivation, and knowledge on her blog Louisville Gals Real Estate Blog.

However, I'm discovering that there are a few out there that ruin it for others.

I believe there is a recent member blog post about the subject.

You may want to check out @Ali Boone and her articles on the BP blog.

I recommend start reading through the forums and blogs available here on BiggerPockets.

It explains how to mention someone in the thread so they will get an alert.http://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/1/blog_posts/20337-at-mentions-come-to-biggerpockets

Our investments are class A properties, many start off as our personal residence and become rentals upon move out.In addition to the podcasts, blogs and forums.

I've read a few threads and blogs on here but couln't find anything comprehensive on the subject.

They create blog posts.

I'm thinking of those towns as blue chips, sure they'll continue to appreciate but the rate will be much lower because they're discovered, established, etc..., but there are people who want to buy homes in coastal areas and cannot afford those so they'll seek more affordable areas and my hope is that if you can locate those now and find the pattern/trend and hold for 20-30 years those are the areas that will have tremendous appreciation.Wow, this ended up way longer than I meant it to be, so if you've read this far I appreciate it!
