@Vera Berishaj you can get an 80% LTV Heloc through Pen Fed on a rental property if it is held in your personal name and not an LLC, and you have 3 properties or less including your primary residence. 12 year draw, no closing cost unless a physical site visit appraisal is required, if the LOC is closed within 2 years they back-charge you for the opening costs ($400-$600), rate is variable tied to prime + 1% and you choose p/i or i/o payment.

Dig through title work, visit the county, look for anything wrong. 

If you visit Indianapolis you will see a solar field very close to the airport.

You can definitley still get some nice deals out there if you're patient enough and narrow it down to a primary city or two to visit, really inspect and get to know. 

Once, I had an applicant, said he forgot his driver's license, left it home, on the first visit, bought his proposed roommate on the second visit because I insist on seeing people in person renting from me, and left the license home again.

Great perspective, already becoming so, and I still have endless to-do lists when I visit.

I had a similar situation some years back, says their parents from India will visit for a few months.

Our lease doe not allow visiting animals on the property.

BTW, after I visited the property, the owner changed the MLS to $1.5 mil.  

I'm also a new investor, but I just purchased my first rental property out of state, without ever visiting in person.
