However the commuter students, who make better tenants, could live 30 minutes away.

Are rents are high and mostly I work with professional type tenants...so often they're just renting to get a feel for the area, commute times, time to sell their house in the transfer city, things like that.   

Purchase price: $375,000 Cash invested: $80,000 Single family home 3 bedrooms, 2 baths with a split floorplan (read - nicer for house sharing); total renovation in 2017 (read - minimal cap ex and minimal hassle); walking distance to campus, medical centers, city center, 6th street, parks (read - not relying now shutdown public transportation or long commutes).

I am interested in investing in out of state rental property and had a question on finding a lender. Am I required to find a lender in the state I’d like to invest in or am I able to use a local lender? Anyone familia...

I am considering doing long distance investing in Wichita to begin because my familiarity with the area as well as connections but I dont know what you all have to say about investing long distance (2.5 hour drive).
