Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Just focusing on the passive income you want to achieve will leave you chasing cash flow which will have you buying properties in worse areas with harder tenancies that seem to cash flow better, but will have large cap ex.Any time someone asks a question about where to invest and it can be anywhere, they aren't ready to invest and are opening themselves up to every pitch in the world on an area.

McKinney and Princeton have been growing a lot and it is a good place to invest, but it is always related to what you are looking to achieve in a rental investment, appreciation or cash flow.At this time that area does not offer a big cash flow and due to the amount of development going on there, rental demand has declined a bit.In any case you have to make an analysis case by case.

Hopefully, this is a useful example of what’s achievable with out-of-state investing, even with no local connections. 

You can put a mortgage into a "trust: without triggering a due on sale but again contacting your bank/lender is the best route to avoid any issues.Some banks/lenders or servicing companies change guidelines and even a trust may require other paperwork but the attorney usually facilitates that to be safe.
