The biggest thing preventing me from biting the bullet and investing is picking a location since I will be investing virtually. What 3 things are you looking for before you choose an area to invest in?

Thanks in advance! Would also love to hear from you via message and connect.

     You do realize that most people today either work out of their homes, or cumute a longer distance so jobs in the immediate area don't have the same impact they used to.
