Internet (you may need to have this if laundry machines, security cameras, etc etc need to be accessed remotely; with a big enough property companies may pay you to be exclusive - larger apartment complexes, MHPs, RVPs and marinas) Payroll, Payroll taxes, Employee benefits & workers' comp insurance (if onsite employees)Vehicle expenses, repairs, licenses, gas & oil & insurance (even for cushman carts for maintenance people)Licenses Bank charges (NSF checks etc; I include an allowance for this in expenses just in case; also credit/debit card fees if tenants pay with cards) That's all I noticed. 

AZ was an easier since i used to live there and am more familiar with the cities, geographical layout etc, but i have never been to AL before i started investing there. i think once you read David Greene's book, if you agree with him, you'll realize that it doesn't really matter if you live there or not, it all comes down to having a great team working for you, and with the internet, you can really do a lot of the knowledge understanding before making a trip out there to figure out that's where you want to invest in.

By "everything" I mean water, electricity, internet, cable/satellite TV, renters insurance and burglar alarm service.

It is kind of apt to bring it up here as I use a "generic" avatar expressly to NOT post my image on the Internet. 

My car is paid in cash, my rent and utilities are included on my paystub as part of my pay so only my phone bill and internet get reported as far as I know.

Do you currently have electricity and internet access at your facility?

investor and have several rental properties here as well , got a tip from of my ex military  friend stationed in Lawton ,  this was about 9 months ago, looked on internet on homes available  and got a referral from my realtor for a local  Lawton real estate agent , of course did my homework  on businesses  / rental comps in area / crime /city plans for future / and rental population. 

Asking people on the internet is not going to help you in any way. 

I would love to hear strategies on finding off market deals in my local area while being thousands of miles away with very limited phone access (internet isn't an issue).

With a website like Facebook, most people are already spending time here every day, so there’s a great opportunity to catch the attention of buyers/renters through a different (and hugely popular) avenue of the internet.
