Hi there  Did you find success with HUD homes? 

Make sure it explicitly explains the process for termination if you are unhappy with their services, especially if they violate the terms of your agreement.3.

I wanted to ask advice of some of you who have a lot of experience in long-term rentals. 

In some cases, federal tax credits like those for low-income housing or economic development might also apply if the project aligns with certain goals.Instead of buying the land outright, developers often lease it from the tribe, which can reduce upfront costs and sometimes come with favorable lease terms.

Look into a DSCR, Debt Service Coverage Ratio, loan where the rental income can be used to qualify the cash out refinance instead of your personal income.To Your Success! 

If your goal is financial freedom, which is a long-term goal, not so much.Financial freedom is a long-term proposition, not a one-time event.

Long-term, look into refinancing once property values increase to lower your interest rate or pull equity for your next investment.Good luck!

Data point: we have a long-term rental in a popular STR neighborhood listed through Zillow right now.Every person who writes asking to do some sort of arbitrage is blocked by the Zillow platform.I don't even have to say "no thank you anymore."  

Renting it out long-term gives us a $3500to 4000 monthly, we could  rent out one bedroom to a nurse and the other to our daughter but still would be a negative.

I use this type of system in a ten unit that I own because the cost to submeter each one was cost prohibitive I usually don’t include other items like wifi/internet unless it’s a furnished/short term rental.
