The move from CA to IN is going to be very personal. 

They can be very hard to find though as they don't move often.BTW: you don't have to physically visit their current home to inspect it.

For this service were we saved his financial butt I charged 3X of what he would have paid with Kiavi or Lima one etc.. but those guys cant move like we move.. so it all worked out And thats pretty much the niche i have carved out..

We would eventually be moving down there.

Look for places where people are moving in and jobs are popping up.

.- Smaller properties are usually easier to off-load (more liquid) because our society is seeing very high levels of migration (people travelling or moving for work constantly) / people less inclined to partner / have families / people more focused on work / and pied-a-terre concept.- Condos are much easier to maintain internally than larger homes.- Condos are easier to manage as Air B&B than larger homes.- In the case of multi-family properties, sharing a home with two or three other families where everyone knows everyone can create issues if they don't get along as the close proximity doesn't allow for any privacy.Happy to connect with you and speak in more detail if you are interested in Massachusetts!

I would say go the owner occupant loan route to get into something for 3.5-5% down instead of 20-25% that you'd need with an investor loan, but those require you to live in the property for a year before you could rent it out.Airbnb could be appealing also since you'd already be furnishing the place for yourself, could just leave the furniture there after you'd move out.

I currently work as a Relationship Manager in Canada but I've been considering moving back and establishing the real estate investment portfolio that I've always dreamed of. 

There is no beneficiary.You need to move the funds along the lines of ownership. 

Once i move out and rent the 3rd floor, cash flow should jump to $2200 minimum.
