Out of state definitely has extra moving parts, but once you lock in a solid agent/PM/contractor team, it gets a lot smoother.I agree on targeting B-class areas since they tend to attract more stable tenants and you’re not chasing constant turnover.

The number of eyeballs they attract is crazy.

There are a few ways to make your offer more attractive including: Not asking for concessions or credits.

-Modern Efficiency: Energy-efficient builds attract quality tenants and reduce ongoing utility costs.

agreed thats a tiny lake  cant see it as much of an attraction personally but Hey us west coast folks are used to large lakes we dont have 10k small lakes.. 

A beginners mistake is thinking that different classes of properties attract the same kind of tenants.

Growth is great here.Why I like it: There’s still strong demand from relocators and families visiting, established nice overall neighborhoods, may attract more MTR renters here if you ever want to transition to that.

I'm very pro-multifamily for investment purposes.If the main attraction to this property is the low interest rate, why not make that work to your advantage and sell the property subto?

Or sell your primary, evict cousin & convert rental into your new primary.If you do choose to sell the rental, check to see if loan is assumable -- that is something attractive to advertise in this buyer's market.

COVID created a chaotic spike in both the sale & rental markets, attracting even more new real estate investors.
