I am an Okanagan investor and also used Vantage West twice.Kelowna is becoming quickly out of hand but there are still deals to be made in Vernon, Lake Country and Penticton Welcome to the REI world !

@Daniel Townsend currently living on the west side of town.

by that I mean they own about 100 west coast parks.I bought one a few years ago that was as you described.. 

First time posting....I live in a A-Class suburb of Cincinnati, OH (West Chester) and I am considering taking a job in Tampa Bay.

It'll likely be in West Little Rock, though.  

NOt sure what your monthly cash flow needs would be to leave your J O B  but lets say its a modest 10k a month which is pretty average these days for west coast... 

To give a little more background of myself, I am a corporate jet pilot and aircraft manager for our west coast operations, and I am also a certified aircraft mechanic.

I have a property in the greater West End area that I already own (4 months into a 12 month lot loan from a local bank). 

I personally wouldn't live in any of my rentals and most successful real estate investors that I know in the US and in Germany say the same. 

I’m off island for the next 6 months or so but own a long term single family on west side.
