What I have chosen to do is concentrate in an area that is not necessarily where I will retire, but at least in the region.

Richard Moreno I think Nick Watkins is on the right track with a local/regional bank.

We have plenty of questions which we will save until after we have searched to forums for similar inquiries that have already been answered.Happy to connect with anyone in the area or region (or anywhere really!) 

The rental market has boomed the last 2 years throughout the region. 

I'd love to hear from more people who have experience investing in the Western MA region and from other musicians who have experience in REI.  

The main meeting is never on a Saturday, and none of the subgroups meet on Saturday (at least not that I am aware of).Yes the "regional rail" does run from Manayunk and does have a stop close to Temple U - but that isn't the BSL ;) Regional rail routes used to be the letter "R" followed by a number, but Septa no longer identifies them that way.

Or if it seems like you have the rare seller who will care, just double close and call it a day.At the end of the day, the seller cares about 2 things.1) The deal closes2) Whatever check they are handed at closing is for the amount you told them it would be when you signed the contract.They don't care if you sell it the next day, rent it, spend 200k rehabbing it, burn it down, drop a bomb on it, paint it purple, or let it sit empty for 9 years.

For instance, do people generally have 1 bank account per house or per region?

We were laser-focused on executing lease options in the "pretty houses" business in the Maryland-close-to-DC region, mostly because wholesaling just doesn't seem as appealing to us.And here we are.

I would say a regional bank money market to start a relationship with them
