Tips for starting Investing while moving around
Hey all! I am super new to real estate investing as I bought my first house in Southern Pines, NC end of 2016 that I currently live in. It has a good rental market being close to golf courses and Fort Bragg but now I want to buy another as I am stationed in Tampa, FL temporarily. While I would love to buy here in Tampa, I will be back to NC very soon (and only for about 2 years).
So, should I try to buy in the Tampa market and manage it from NC or just stay in the Raleigh Area?
I want to have passive rental income and plan to hold on to the property.
I appreciate any and all advice!
