@Domin Car,I have been able to negotiate with my local portfolio lenders to agree to supply loans on properties that are outside of the geographic region.I would encourage you to talk to some local portfolio lenders (i.e. bank loan officers) in your area and explain your venture and bring your professional portfolio to show them how you have successfully operated those in the past.With the line of credit that you should be able to pull from your other properties and depending on the leverage you're looking to position, you may have a good case for a lender to work with you if you ask enough people.Good luck!

@Domin Car  that's hard money to come by form private investors.. most private investors want short term deals.You should purchase the pro upgrade on BP  then put your request over there and spell out exactly what you want in very fine detail if you want to get responses.

A car loan or credit card debt could be the difference between an approval or denial.  

In Q3 2008, the median Bay Area home price in my CAR data set was $508,722.

Ther risk is you buy it and it does not close but at least you would get your money back.If the seller has something of significant value (like a car, etc.) you can place a lien on that if it has not already been done. 

Also possibly who ever gave you car loans, will more than likely be happy to give you a credit card.  

So many rely on lists blindly populated from an internet source, but most wont just go get in a car and look for deals themselves.

Currently my father lives in Nashville (retired) and is willing to take car of any properties I purchase.

It is an imaculate 3/2 with a 2.5 car garage in a nice neighborhood.

Just a word of caution some states require you to have dealers license like a used car dealer for buying and selling mobile homes.
