@Michael M. watch which advice you take on this subject because there is some variation around the country based on state, city, county, etc.

Im 27yo and i moved from other country 3 years ago to the USA , my credit score is 700+ but its not long enough , its about 10months old.

@Gabriel SotoI just did this today and got lists of them, it’s through country treasurers office.

I have several of them installed around the country. 

I mean...I just get this feeling that a property in a city that is safer than only 4% of the cities in the entire country could definitely fall in the D category of "war zone."

This would be on the other side of the country for me.I’d like to be in control of the clerical work, like bookings and ads but I need a management company to provide 24/7 guest services, emergency maintenance, etc. but I’ve been doing a lot of research and it seems like most of the management companies like to do everything instead of just the things I’m searching for.

I think you can have both scale and diversity in portions which achieve your overall goals.If you are a remote investor, and using property management, there will be a threshold of scale - number of units you hold in a single market - which will garner you a better rate/unit for property management costs.On the macro-economic level, distribution of holdings in different regions (states/provinces, countries) with diverse economic drivers and a low-level of coupling will help smooth the bumps of fluctuation in local economies.So perhaps it is not a question of Dallas or Indianapolis, but one of how much Dallas and Indianapolis and do your acquire them in parallel or sequentially.

I now help people all over the country do the same.
