Other areas constantly threaten to curtail the ability to use homes for str whereas sevier county is based on the rental of cabins and they have zoning that can never be rescinded to guarantee it. 

If you are buying in a more metro area, there will be lots of choices.In our area, we are quite rural and I couldn't guarantee that I would find the resources to do setup completely remotely.

Hi EdwardThe main benefits of section 8 include guaranteed rent payments from the government, which can provide a steady income stream and reduce the risk of vacancies or non-payment.

Ultimately, every applicant is a risk in one was or another, no one is 100% guaranteed or qualified, you could have the best applicant on paper screw you over, or even pass away, you just need to do research and use common sense in my experience.

My point here is I don't know how they guarantee a deal but that is an interesting proposition.  

Check with your lender first—they may allow it if you personally guarantee the loan.2.

It's no guarantee but it's a good place to start.

Maybe see about getting it turned into a section 8 and showing the tenant how to do that so you can get guaranteed rent from government if its a possibility?

They say that their customers see a 30% increase in revenue but they don't make any guarantees.   

There are DSCR lenders will allow only a single 20 or 25% owner of an LLC to sign a Personal Guarantee (other owners are not on the loan, or liable for the loan).
