I have a rental property out of state and will be renovating after the tenant vacates this year.

I had to abandon a vacation and come here to oversee this and clean up her mess. 

When these homes get listed, we get photos and the 'dream of owning your own vacation home' So we have to start with price & location..if those both meet the criteria, then we hone in on weather we want one that has not been taken care of and likely not generating enough income to cover expenses or one that is fully themed and likely will continue to do well if all else stays the same.

The unit I want to occupy has 3 people living in it, when is it safe to give them a notice to vacate and does anyone have a template for this?  

I know this statement isn't regarding Maryland, but in Florida, the landlord must deliver written notice of intent to claim monies from the deposit by certified mail to the tenant's last known address within 30 days from the vacate date upon termination of the lease.

But people are still spending on vacations like there’s no tomorrow in Branson where my cabin is.

In addition consider other documents you will need to have on hand like Pet Addendums, Notice to Vacate, Lease Extensions, Lease Assignments, etc.

Looking to purchase a property in Turks and Caicos kind of a family vacation or to Airbnb, your cities are looking to purchase at home international there's a first time looking to purchase a property outside of United States any help thank you in advance

Reece,without full financials i cant advise much, but i'd be leary if the deal doesn't pencil at least ok while the current rents are in place. reason being is you'll still have your expenses (PITI+mgmt+repairs etc) until the units can vacate, no rent remodel, lease up again. with that much repair it feels like you have a LOT of DD before diving in.

This is why true vacation markets are the way to go
