Alternatively, you transfer the $1,000 rent to mgt company which records it as revenue, just like you would.

any simple alternate solutions you can think of?

I wanted to reach out and ask what other alternatives to Stessa are out there.

Obviously, this is not a financing specifically for the overseas property and the borrower could use the money to do anything they want.If you want to use leverage in Mexico, the alternatives to local bank financing are developer financing for pre-construction properties (which is rarely given if you don't have the necessary personal relationships) or seller financing.

Does anyone else see an alternative?  

I am not sure ... that is your call.Being experienced, as I see you are, using an MLS Flat Fee Listing company is by far the best alternative.

They also might be local and if you bank with them there might be incentives for lending with themCon: A credit union is restricted on the lending options they can offer (they have limited money to lend) and they might not have another alternative that could be better for you. 

It will likely cost you more money, but you probably won't have another alternative.

You can actually keep a renter for years without having to do much maintenance for them for lack of alternatives.3.)
