My place is two miles from the local ski hill and would be a good match for a family or two families.

Almost everyone is within 300 miles.

More than 36 miles of light rail would connect North Austin and South Austin with downtown Austin and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport.https://austin.culturemap.com/news/city-life/06-15-20-three-new-light-rail-lines-drive-10-billion-transit-plan-for-austin/

So according to the listing agent the seller wants to keep the driveway and garage for some reason even though the seller lives over a mile away. if they sell the driveway and garage it is and extra 200k. 

@Lucas Miles what your going to run into is municipalities who will require a physical address and actual person with contact info in order to get a rental license.Unless your a licensed RE Broker your still going to be personally liable on the PM of the properties as you must be property owner, w2 employee of the property owner, or licensed RE Broker to do property management in MN.

If you’re set on Raleigh, the southeast side is seeing a lot of of gentrification, so if you’re willing to do a substantial remodel there are some opportunities there - but there is a lot of competition for these properties.

I get that they seem all but identical but they really are miles apart, vastly different assessment systems, completely different marketing and sales models, just really 2 different worlds in total. 

There are two ways to go about marketing/advertising your business...You can go a mile wide and an inch deep, which would be marketing large scale such as blanketing an entire neighborhood with direct mail, door hangers, etc.

We will rent an apartment in the new state until that process is complete.Being that I will be >500 miles away, I will need a property manager/leasing agent etc.
