What you've done in the past is no longer working, so what are you going to do differently going forward?

I am always trying to learn how to do better in this type of space. 

Its interesting which countries have low birth rates and which countries do not. 

I would only do on 1+ acre properties.

Do you mind sharing what drew you to them?

If you can invest locally, I'd recommend doing that before investing out of state.

I can do in-state, out-of-state, anything.

You are free to do whatever you want after. 

You could even tell the tenant you would have an attorney do the paperwork that says to such.

I think this is a calculation a lot of homeowners are making right now--especially if they have a low interest mortgage, equity, and their house will cashflow as a rental.The choice is a personal one of course, but I think your future self will thank you if you pull out some equity from your existing home with a HELOC for the downpayment on the next house and a cushion renting your current home, use a property manager as you have other things to do, and buy the next house and do the same thing again.
