I live in Hawaii and have been having a very hard time finding good fixer uppers on the Big Island where I live...

Hey guys so I’m pretty new to this, I been trying to buy a rental property for about a year now and it’s been nearly impossible in this crazy market and I’m also based on Long Island which definitely doesn’t help so for the passed six or so weeks I been looking upstate, Utica to be exact, I been to the area a few times and properties are much cheaper over there specially multi families and the numbers seem to workout much better for me, would love to hear some feedback and see what you guys think even if you don’t live in the area.

I agree that four is good: 1 Western MA2 Worcester County3 Greater Boston 4 Cape and Islands

Also open to Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Maine, but my preference is MA. 

I have places in southern Alberta and Vancouver Island. 

I'm an architectural designer looking to renovate aging homes here in Rhode Island.

We moved here (with our 2 elementary-age boys) from Mercer Island last year (long story short) and we absolutely love it. 

I was looking into building a container home air bnb park on the big island.

In addition to climate change Phoenix has insane urban sprawl and the heat-island effect is enormous.
