Finding first deal from long distance
Hi everyone! I just moved to Chicago for a job and don't plan on investing in the Chicago area but still want to get things moving and find my first deal in the next few months. With that being said I'm looking for any advice on first time long distance investing particularly in the Denver, Rochester MN, and Madison WI markets. I just ordered David Greene's book on long distance investing but would really appreciate anyone's perspective on strategies they've done long distance or any insights you might have to the above markets!

I agree with @Jonathan Greene. I might be bias because I live and sell in Chicago but I think there is so much opportunity here. Especially, if you wanted to house hack and didn't want to miss any first time buying programs...if you're eligible. I can't tell from your original post. It's a great place to learn about properties then do the next one remotely. I don't want to be a dream crusher. I do believe Chicago is going to have a price adjustment this year and you might not want to miss any opportunities here. Best of luck!
