Remote RE investing also eliminates opportunities such as house hacking and its various advantages.I recommend newbies start local regardless if they are in cheap, low appreciation, high initial cash flow market or if they are in expensive, high appreciation, poor initial cash flow market.The OP is a young, first time home buyer that will be living in San Diego.
