One of my colleagues invests near Yosemite and Lake Tahoe and seems to be doing quite well.

Just make sure that the new property can cover the HELOC payments as well as its own mortgage.

thanks for your time and help rent to retirement works directly with build to rent developers like us around the country once they are framed up. you are buying properties pretty much at market value but with a hand holding. you can work directly with a builder or directly with them. they are just an intermediary. they take 5% on what we make as a builder but have a large list of investors and a systemized approach to selling new builds. if you want to get a better deal I'd recommend directly contacting builders and building it yourself. fly to the market. spend 2 days, tour new builds, get a feeling for how it's going. if your builder isn't building multiple at a time then I wouldn't recommend working with them. rent to retirement is a well oiled and well run machine. they've had their ups and downs with dozens of transactions in florida but modified their process. they are well known and established and transparent. if you have a more specific market and feel confident in your ability to vet deals try it out. happy to talk more my info is in my signature. we work directly with them to sell new builds and no organization is perfect but I have good things to say about them as a builder and potential build to rent developer that sells build to rent triplexes and single family homes through them to end buyers in California like the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and San Diego 

I won't lie - I can smell the marijuana on certain days as well. 

To answer your question about the market, well it's all over the place!

I'm not saying I would do this, and I haven't done the math yet, though I think I could get a normal policy with hurricane/wind as well as the prosper policy for less than it would cost to add wind/hurricane to the prosper policy.
