Investing Out of State

Aj Bowman

Hi Everyone,

I currently live in Maryland and I am starting investing career. Looking for my first flip as we speak. There could be a chance in a couple months that I would be moving to Texas for a job. I would like to continue investing in Maryland because this is the market I know and feel comfortable in but I don't know what I would need for flips or buy and holds if I am not in the area. I have my team (if you want to call it that), my contractor, realtor, CPA, insurance agent, attorney, set up in Maryland.  I want to make investing my career in the future so if I can't invest when I'm not in the state then I just won't move. Now if I do move I think I would be in the Houston area which I hear is a great place to invest so that would be awesome but I am not sure if I want to leave a area I know. What do you guys think?

Thank ahead of time

Hard to say.  Do you trust the people on the ground in Maryland to be your eyes and ears?

IF you do come to Houston, talk to @Lyall Storandt as he is an expert in the area.  Lots of deals here.
