I was supposed to visit Pittsburgh on April but with Covid I was'nt able to travel.I would definatly build a strong team of realtor (that knows and understands long distance investing and would be willing to help you in unconventional tings like virtual house tours etc), contractor and PM.

The same lucky cisco guy that stay in cisco has no increase in wealth as their stock going nowhere in 20 years haha but they can retire easily now thanks to their home LOL i had one fellow Stanford graduates that's a super genius, after school creates a virtual office startup in SF only to be sold in 3 years,bought home in palo alto and then sell again after he sold his startup (then move to Brentwood).

With this vehicle he will have virtually limitless investment options, including being a private lender.

@Mark Millich We do a lot of virtual wholesaling, meaning that while we live in South Florida, we wholesale in other cities and states.We rely on highly targeted lists of off market properties, such as absentee owners who have owned the property for 5+ years, evictions with court dates, etc.

We should start a meet up (or virtual)!

Have you considered using spaces to host virtual mailbox spaces? 

Are there any communities that meet virtually to analyze deals?

There is a reason why virtually all economists view rent control as undesired. 

Yes, I am on both, but I find that VRBO gets virtually no traction oddly...

New train stations, wifi connections and a growing virtual economy all bode well for smaller communities that have some community and vibrancy/.We have invested in Pittsfield and like whats going on there.
