While to be Boston proper you are looking at some areas that are $1000/square feet you can find a lot of value in some metro areas such as Roslindale - 2 family with 5/6 beds can go for 5-600k in fair to good condition and that’s a nice middle ground location.

@Roger Roth, Because 1031 is a federal statute the location of your intermediary is not as important as their performance, responsiveness, and breadth of experience. 

Another option is to speak to the city and see what kind of support they can offer.Where is this community located and is there potential job growth and a sustainable economy in the area?

So more important than location is going to be the demonstrated experience of your QI. 

I am a brand new investor located in Spartanburg, South Carolina. 

Groundwater is usually deeper just depends on your location.

@Alexander FeliceAre you looking to move because of location or due to job opportunity?

Value > location (at least in my opinion).Good luck with your search!
