Prefer south east area of the country and near the ocean.

Just some food for thought

We enjoy going to sports games, eating great food, and enjoy fitness.

At the end of the day, though, the best investment strategy is dependent on your own preferences/goals/skills and will be a personal decision.

I prefer only cash deals (personal savings for investments) only. 

Since I live in Indianapolis, IN, I would prefer some one here in Indy.Thank you.

In other words, learning how to invest on the left side of the equal sign instead of the right side.Just food for thought.

The hardest part is the inconvenience to your current residents.I prefer to sell my rent properties to my residents. 

We would prefer to keep the renovation budget to around $30K-$40K total.
