I drive through South Dakota quite often on my trip from Washington to Minnesota to see my family - great state!

Hi,I am a newbie and wanted to invested in SFH in CA, preferably within day trip from Bay Area. 

Reach out if you're thinking about making a trip down to survey the area.

Have 790+ FICO, about $30k reserves and will be at least six months into a steady 36-45K job when I apply but tax returns for the last few years are a basket case from low income while I got 20s wanderlust out of my system on long hiking trips. 

Nuisance Suit pretends to trip over a piece of heaved sidewalk he notices near the front door of the place, has a Slip and Fall Attorney on speed dial.Dr.

Did you promise a return on their investment or a hunting trip?

We're making a trip for 6 weeks at end of April and still trying to develop a strategy. 

Worse I would need a lawyer and have to make trips to Az hundreds of miles away while working.

@Kathleen Park you have stumbled on something that trips up a lot of folks.

Knowing an area will give you some advantage over not knowing an area at all.If you do decide to go with out of state investing, spend the money and take a trip out there to know the area better and connect personally with professionals.
