They exist here because people are clamoring to live there.

Our current plan is live in the current home until the new one is "livable"... then make the current one an ADU and rent it out. 

We currently live in Hot Springs Arkansas and my wife just accepted a position in Jacksonville Florida.

I live in California BTW.

This is the fourth time I have lived in this area.

I am a contractor myself but we live in the Denver area.

I’ve been browsing Paperstac quite a bit lately, but I’ve noticed that most of the properties against which the notes are secured are decrepit shacks located in very rural areas.I’m fully aware that the kind of borrower who defaults on their mortgage won’t usually be living in an ornate mansion, but do you know of any way to buy notes for properties located in major cities, or at least somewhere where home values won’t tank 50% when the local chicken slaughterhouse or glue factory closes?

Your experience in sales and market insight from your work and living in the Detroit area sound like valuable assets.

I live in San Diego, but I have a rental property in the Chandler area.

And then there's the question of whether you even want to live in a state like that.
