But as long as its not directly in the flight path, it will be okay. 

@Leeling Chew we require anyone over the age of 18 to fill out an application for the property even if they plan to just be an occupant. 

Do you believe it will now be more cost effective to hold a license or do you believe the expenses will go up with what I assume will be a flight from the business by low producing real estate agents? 

Having a long-term rental while living abroad is do-able.Flipping houses while abroad, in my opinion, more difficult, especially if its your first go around with real estate.I would recommend taking a flight and staying in the area for a week and inspect the neighborhoods and make connections.You can reach out to @Elenis Camargo who has a PM company in Jacksonville.Best of luck though.

It would be ideal to chat with investors operating in the Midwest, but I welcome anyone's perspective on BRRRing from a considerable distance (plane flight away).Thanks!

I believe you are in OR, one of my favorite States, but a long flight from pretty much everywhere.

First off, find out what you want, and go about finding a market to fill that need, then go about finding an agent in that market.

What have you been filling your pipeline with? 

What this means is that if you own 1 or 2 rental properties out of state, you'd only be able to expense an economy flight/reasonable accomodations.

Both units were filled at the time of purchase, but both had to be evicted a few months later due to failure to pay rent.
