The property will do very well over the long term.

I’m finding a hard time finding comps for a long term rental.

For a while now, I had layered in Stessa.com for finances: expense management, tax prep, reporting, etc.

Once you do this conversion you can't change it back to a traditional long-term rental. 

I have read the book on long distance investing and still am not too confident to get started.

I'll usually eat $100 - $200 worth of touch-up cleaning for a long-term tenant.

We're now up to $1,900/mo and the current tenant wanted to sign a full year lease so it's a furnished long term rental for the moment.

Property values here have a steady history of growth, making it a reliable market for long-term investment.2.Tenant-Friendly Laws: While this might seem like a challenge for landlords, tenant-friendly laws create a stable rental market.

Quote from @Devin James: Im currently learning this lesson with New Builds that have taken twice as long to complete than anticipated.....Finishing a Real Estate project ASAP is critical because...1) Holding Costs add up quickly- Loan Interest- Property Taxes- Insurance2) Investor Capital- Our financial projections are dependent on how fast we can turn our investors capital.

I would have asked you what your long-term goal is but you have already thought about it.
